No more electricity
questions accepted.
I'm
sorry, I'm not accepting any more questions (or
offering any kind of advice).
Period.
The
only
exception is for members of the media, who can use
the menu below.
My websites have exploded in popularity and it's
impossible(not inconvenient, but
impossible) for me to reply to even a
fraction of those who want to ask me something. I'm
sorry, I can't help you, so please don't write.
Lots of people read this and send me their
questions anyway. I wish I knew how to convince
them not to. It seems that no matter how strongly I
tell people not to write for help, they insist on
doing so anyway.
With that said, if you need to contact me for
some other reason, you can use the menu below.
Unless you're from
the media, please
do not send any
question under any circumstances!
I can't be clearer than
this.
Are you really from
the media?
Did you
lie about the answer to the previous question?
Members of the media ONLY can contact me at
(512) 322-0638 or email.
Manufacturers and Sales Reps: I am WAY backlogged on products to test, so there is no point in sending me any products for testing now. If you insist on sending them anyway, you can send to: 2605-B Oaklawn Ave., Austin TX 78722, but I make absolutely no promise as to when (if ever) I will get around to testing it, nor will I return products. Further, I absolutely will *not* sign any non-disclosure agreements, nor will I agree to not publish my review if I discover the product doesn't work as advertised. (Yes, manufacturers and product reps actually make that request of me.) If you want to let me know about your product, just send me a link to the relevant page on your website (NOT moronic press releases, PDF's, etc.). If you're a sales rep for a power factor product and you want to know whether it really works, just test it yourself as I explain on the power factor page.
Consumers: Are you writing about a power factor product? If so, I've made my position on those exceptionally clear. If it's about some other product, feel free to send me a link to the web page about the product. Due to my workload I can't evaluate most products hands-on, nor can I provide responses about product suggestions. Thank you for understanding.
IF you have read the above (which in my experience is almost never the case), then here's the address.
Are you willing to send me a sample to test, or provide a live demonstration in Austin,
Texas?
You can send samples to:
Michael Bluejay
2605-B Oaklawn Avenue
Austin, TX 78722
Those willing to send samples ONLY can use
this
email.
I don't believe these devices save energy for
home users,
for that reason I will not purchase any with my
own money,
and the only way to convince me otherwise is to
send me a sample to test.
If
this is REALLY not about a power factor
device or surge supressor, you can use
this.
Electric
rates differ from provider to provider. Not
everyone in your state pays the exact same rate for
electricity, just like no one pays the exact same
price for a loaf of bread. What's listed in the
calculator is an average for the state...as mentioned in the calculator. If you know your actual marginal electric rate, congratulations. Feel free to choose a rate that more closely matches what you're actually paying.
Google
picks the ads, not me. They change all the
time, too. Though frankly, I don't care what ads
Google picks. I'd like to have enough faith in my
fellow humans that they can understand the
difference between editorial and advertising, and
that they treat the latter with a little more
skepticism. If people are really so stupid that
they accept what's presented in an ad without
question, then humanity has a lot bigger problems
than the fact that Michael Bluejay's website
contains some of those ads. Anyway, if an ad really
troubles you, feel free to not click on it.
