Sure! We became obsessive (for awhile) when we installed solar panels a few years back

Aother cool device, if you want to find a particularly "evil" (power draining) culprit is to purchase a Kill-A-Watt device which you plug in between your appliance and the wall. When you're done, you could resale it for close to full price! Also, remember as appliances age, they do become less efficient.
