Quick answer

Plug it directly into a standard grounded wall outlet and wait for the indicator light to turn on. There is no wiring, app or configuration; leave it plugged in continuously for it to work.

What should I check before I start?

  • Confirm your outlets are standard grounded household outlets (90V-250V).
  • Unbox and inspect each unit for shipping damage.
  • Decide placement using the room map below.
  • Have your order confirmation handy in case you need support.

What are the installation steps?

  1. Plug it in directly

    Insert the unit directly into a wall outlet, never a power strip, surge bar or extension cord.

  2. Wait for the light

    Wait for the indicator light to illuminate, confirming the unit is powered.

  3. Leave it plugged in

    Leave the unit plugged in continuously; it only works while powered.

  4. Repeat for each unit

    Repeat for each unit in your bundle, spacing them across floors and circuits.

Where should each unit go by home size?

Home sizeUnitsSuggested placement
Under 1,200 sq ft1Central outlet, ideally near the kitchen or HVAC circuit
1,200-1,500 sq ft2One per floor, one near the largest motor load
1,500+ sq ft3One per floor plus one near the panel, garage or utility room

What safety rules should I follow?

  • Keep the unit dry and away from heat sources.
  • Do not open, modify or immerse the device.
  • Unplug before cleaning and wipe with a dry cloth only.
  • Discontinue use if the housing is cracked or the unit becomes hot, and contact support.

Only have one unit but a bigger home?

Prioritize the outlet nearest your largest motor load, such as an HVAC circuit, pool pump or refrigerator. If you decide you need more coverage, review StopWatt bundle pricing; the 3-device bundle has the lowest per-unit price for multi-floor homes.

What if something is not working right?

Still no indicator light?

Try a different outlet to rule out a dead circuit, then contact support@getstopwatt.net with your order number. If the unit is defective, we replace it at no cost within the guarantee period; see warranty and guarantee.
