Is this a Scam? You Decide

I received the following email the other day on a device that claims: The Patented KVAR PFC Unit is a UL/CSA/EPA listed product, has a 12 year residential, and a 5 year commercial warranty and with an average 15% to 20% reduction in kilowatts hours, the investment return can be 12 months or less. Lower monthly power bills, decreased heat dissipation in all inductive load appliances, thus extending their productive life cycle and complete power surge protection for the entire home or office. The beauty of this system is you can take it with you when you move. We even had a customer sell his house for $2000.00 more because he used the KVAR PFC Unit as a selling point.

Greetings to you.

We are actively seeking fellow Electrical Contractors to add the KVAR Energy Controller to their product line. Many contractors include this item as a perk to close the bigger deal.

The KVAR Energy Controller is a capacitor bank that captures and recycles wasted energy back into the electrical panel, thereby reducing the demand on the meter. The customer pays for fewer KWH‘s, motor life is extended and it also serves as whole panel amperage surge protection. The customer benefits, you benefit and Mother Earth benefits. The KVAR EC is a certified green device. We offer both single phase, for most residential applications, as well as three phase units for your commercial customer base.

For less the $2000, you can become a distributor of the KVAR Energy Controller, a made in the US, UL Approved and Patented product. As a Distributor your cost for the standard PU1200 is $175 or LESS. The Distributorship comes with product, a demo kit and associated advertising materials.

Do not be misled by all the Chinese knockoffs and other imports on the market. For liability reasons, demand the UL Approved KVAR Energy Controller.

We invite your call and look forward to having you as a part of the KVAR US Team.

Best Regards, Phil McCullem

  • I just talked with representatives about this equipment today. They smiled politely and said yes they were aware of the power triangle but that there must be some power released when capacitors are connected as they have documented kwhr reductions. They use a Fluke power analyser and an adjustable capacitor to determine just how much kvar is to be added. This is top secret information and they do not share the value in their reports. I was stunned by that as I was wanting to calculate kvar savings since we are charged $.24 per kvar at peak kw load. They may provide this information in an upcoming report. It looks to me like they are calculating the kva difference from no correction to corrected, multiplying by running hours, and calling it kwhr savings but I'm not sure. It is difficult to answer THEIR question which is: How does this work in a residence where there is no power factor involved but they still see reductions in the bills; although one of the two presenters said it did not work as well in his new house........ We are reducing the I2R losses in a commercial facility when correcting at the motor load. This has to help.
