How to save waste electricity for ceiling fans and CFLs?Equipments must not change the speed and brightness of the appliances,so dimmer and regulators items that control the speed and brightness are items that I am not looking for.
If you are already using ceiling fans and CFLs, then you are already saving electricity. A ceiling fan literally costs you pennies per month, yet can make a room feel about 5 degrees cooler. So, with your ceiling fan on, you can set your air conditioner up a few degrees -- and that is where you truly save money. One thing to consider with ceiling fans is that the larger they are, the more efficient they are. So a 36" ceiling fan may have to be on medium speed to move air in a living room, but a 54" ceiling fan could run on low and provide the same level of comfort using less wattage. Have a really big living room? Then you may want to consider a monster 72" ceiling fan that has a very low speed setting.
The only thought I have regarding CFLs: if you keep your lights on a lot, you can probably use lower wattage bulbs. There are 60W equivalent CFLs that are 7W, 9W, 11W, and 13W -- the main difference being how bright they are for the first several seconds. The 7W bulbs take a long 30 seconds to reach full brighness, but if you have them on for hours, then they will save you almost 50% compared to 13W bulbs. But if you switch your lights off a heck of a lot, you maybe better getting the 13W which will be almost full brightness the second they turn on.
Now, if you have a large and old house, you might be able to save some money by installing a whole-house power "conditioner," but the initial cost of installing these is usually so high that it is not worth it to the average home owner. Again, in a large old house, it could save you "up to" 40% on your electrical bills, though the average savings is probably closer to 10%-15%, so the "payback" on these devices could be as long as the mortgage on the house. The larger and older the building, the greater potential for savings. The additional advantage to this is that the "conditioned" electricity is much easier on lights and appliances, so everything in your house -- from the cheapest light bulbs to your computer to your refrigerator -- should last longer.
