Got a new air conditioning unit this spring, so we had to enroll in the Summer Discount Plan again.
This lets Edison turn off your A/C at peak electricity usage times.
They told us a contractor will be contacting us within a week or so to install this gadget.
We never got a call, so my wife called Edison again, and this time they gave us a direct number to schedule the installation.
Once installed, we were set from the following meter reading.
We got $32.40 in credit the first month.
They say you can save up to $200 per year, and we got about $135 last year.
There is another program, where users voluntarily cuts down usage between 2 PM and 6 PM, on designated "Save Power Day"s.
The credit is up to $100 a year, and depends on your normal usage during that time.
There's not much potential for us since we don't use much in the first place.
We get maybe 75 cents a day.
[Update 2/14/15]
I think the air conditioning is stopped when the light is blinking.
