StopWatt manual

What comes in the box?

• Each retail box contains one StopWatt unit (or more, depending on your bundle) and a quick-start card.
• Inspect the unit for shipping damage before use. Do not use a unit with a cracked casing or exposed internal components.
• No tools, batteries or app download are required to set it up.

How do I set up StopWatt for the first time?

1. 1

   Choose an outlet

   Pick a standard grounded wall outlet rated 90V-250V, ideally near your electrical panel or a major motor-driven appliance.

2. 2

   Plug in directly

   Insert the unit fully into the wall outlet so the prongs make firm contact. Do not use an extension cord, power strip, or timer between the wall and the unit.

3. 3

   Wait for the indicator light

   Allow a few seconds after plugging in for the indicator light to activate, confirming the unit is receiving power.

4. 4

   Repeat per floor or circuit area

   If you have more than one unit, distribute them using the placement table below rather than clustering them on a single circuit.

5. 5

   Leave it plugged in continuously

   StopWatt is designed for continuous use. There is no on/off switch to manage and no maintenance required.

How many units do I need, and where should I place them?

StopWatt works locally on the circuit it is plugged into, so placement affects how much of your home benefits. Use the table below as a starting point, and see specifications for the technical detail behind the voltage range and coverage.

What are the safety do's and don'ts?

• Do use only on the stated 90V-250V voltage range.
• Do plug directly into a wall outlet, not a power strip.
• Do keep the unit away from water, direct sunlight and extreme heat sources.
• Don't attempt to open, modify or repair the unit yourself.
• Don't use a unit with visible cracks, burn marks or a damaged plug.
• Don't rely on StopWatt as a surge protector, GFCI, or safety device of any kind — it performs power-factor correction only.

How do I troubleshoot common issues?

If none of these steps resolve the issue, reach out through the contact page or email support@getstopwatt.net with your order number. For a broader picture of what the device can and cannot do, see does StopWatt really work.

How should I store and care for the unit?

• If removing a unit temporarily, store it in a dry location away from extreme temperatures.
• Wipe the casing with a dry cloth only; never submerge or spray liquid cleaner on the unit.
• No maintenance, filters or batteries are required during normal use.
