Hi, Im trying to find a termometer to check my tenants usage of air con, i believe they use it over 15 hours but they refuse and say only few hours of usage at night, will this be able to help me find out about it?

The Lascar works great for what it is made for but not the best device for your purpose. I would think something like the following would work better. You would have to install it though in some way that they didn't have access to it. http://www.amazon.com/P3-P4400-Electricity-Usage-Monitor/dp/B00009MDBU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1403682570&sr=8-1&keywords=watt+meter

I put the ac in a rental unit and am not sure - sorry. I know the tenant is very happy with the unit!

I just started testing using a "kill a watt" meter($20) in cleveland. Skies that look like an ad for prozac. 65 watt max so far with 1killowatt hour accumulated over 1 week. My garage roof angle isn't the best(west). More data soon, follow up. Kw is a load measurement, kwhour is accumulated consumption.

My unit fan runs continuously no matter what the setting. I never hear the compressor kick in.I am concerned about my electric bill also. How did any of you speak to a representative? All I got was to e-mail them and I have not heard back. Right now I am trying to use the bucket and see if shuts off when the bucket is full. What is a good setting for a large basement? I would appreciate any help.

As long as the temperature you're measuring is between -20F and 80F, yes. This thermometer cannot turn an A.C. on and off, but it can tell you the temp of the output air stream or the room temp.

Are you sure the unit is set on "cool" and not just "fan"? I have done that before. Otherwise it must not be working right. We have our unit in a second house which I know dates back to about 1900, so it is not well insulated nor does it have energy efficient windows. The downstairs is 30' by 25', with four rooms that are all connected, so you can make a circle through the rooms. We have the unit in one room and a large fan in the opposite corner of the house to keep the air moving. We were just there and for 2 days with temps in the high 80's the EdgeStar kept the downstairs at 69-70 degrees. Are you sure the unit is set on "cool" and not just "fan"? I have done that before.

You need to get a humidity guage to see how much humidity you have in your rooms. If the water emptys in 24 hours...it's working! It should feel like cool air coming from the unit. Yes, a slight condensation on windows, not enough to worry about.

I wish I knew. I have this and the manual says absolutely nothing about how to set this in dehumidifier mode....nor do I see anything on the display about % of humidity. Sounds like BS to me. I'm probably going to get a separate dehumidifier instead...considering the fact that dehumidifiers display the amount of humidity in the air. I have no idea why NewAir listed this as a dehumidifier. I understand that AC mode can serve as a slight dehumidifier, but that's not so concentrated on that function.

Highly doubtful, used by Heating and cooling people more so to check air tempatures. Electrician rarely has to check the tempature of anything. Hope this helps.

I don't see that information anywhere on the box or instructions. Please contact www.conair.com for that information.

Pent air says 3000hrs. Switch is on the transformer. Mine is plugged into my ground fault interrupt for safety. Looks great at night. Kids say the bubbles look cool.

I am not sure, as I only have it set for lockers at this time and it only runs for a second or so to fill my air system currently.

It'll give you a pretty accurate reading on the air coming out of the vent but it's probably reading off the vent itself. I use it on air vents in the house when servicing the ac to check air temps. It works pretty good. I don't know how you would make it focus just on air but I have compared it to a regular thermometer hanging in the vent & it reads within a degree or so to it. It definitely reacts faster than a regular thermometer. Just remember when reading something very close, it will be reading slightly lower than the laser sight because the sight comes out of the top of it.

Sorry! Yes I didn't answer the question. I just thought it is the product review. It should be some problems 1) the pipes have air leaking or ground is not sealed well 2) fan is not so powerful.

Save your money. I used this for about 18 hours a day to remove heat and it lasted 1 month.. Buy this instead VenTech IF4 4" Inline Duct Fan 190 CFM and you will be happy. I have been running this between 12 and 20 hours a day for about 6 months now a great investment! VenTech IF4 4" Inline Duct Fan 190 CFM

Unfortunately, I can't answer that. I bought this for my daughter-in-law. I would say ask Conair customer service??? Sorry
