How Does the XPS100 Work?
The XPS100 reduces the amount of power drawn from the utility by storing otherwise
lost electricity caused by the inductive motors in your home. Examples of inductive
motors are Air Conditioning units, refrigerators, freezers, washers, dryers, dishwashers,
pool pumps, vacuum cleaners, furnace blower motors, fans etc…
What is Power Factor?
Power factor is the percentage of electricity that’s delivered to your house
and used effectively, compared to what is wasted. For example, a 1.0 power factor
means that all the electricity that’s being delivered to your home is being
used effectively for its purpose. However, most homes in America today have a .77
power factor or less. This means that 77% of the electricity that is coming thru
your meter at your home or business is being used effectively, the other 23% is
being wasted by your inductive load. With a low power factor, the utility has to
deliver more electricity to do the same work. However, the XPS100 increases that
power factor in many cases to .95 to .98, thus increasing the effective use of your
electricity and lowering your usage. You become a better steward of our natural
resources. (Power

Does the XPS100 work in any home?
Yes it does, as long as you have a circuit breaker panel with breaker switches and
not the old screw in type fuses, the unit will work on any single-phase electric
application for homes.
Is the XPS100 tested and approved by independent labs?
Yes, the XPS100 is "ETL" listed and tested. Goto
www.intertek.com Also, the technology is recognized by the U.S. Department
of Energy.

Is the XPS100 easy to install?
Yes,
1. locate your electrical panel
2. locate your first 20 amp breaker near the top of the panel.
3. Turn off that breaker and find out what outlets out, and plug in the XPS100.
4. Turn breaker back on.
You have just conditioned half of your electrical panel.
Installation of the second unit is a easy as locating the breaker right below it
and repeat the process.
How long will the XPS100 last?
It has a predicted lifespan of 20 plus years.
Why haven’t I heard of this product until now?
That’s easy; two words “cost effectiveness”. Up until recently,
electric rates throughout America were cheap, costing us 2, 3 or 4 cents per kilowatt-hour.
Now, electric rates are 8, 10, 12, 14, and 19 and in some cases New York City is
22 cents per Kwh, and Hawaii is 33.5 cents per Kwh. At the cheaper rates the XPS100
didn’t make sense, but at the current rates, it makes all the sense in the
world!

Secondly, Xedia Technologies was launched in October 2007 with XPS100 as one of
its flagship products. While Greg
Dockery’s company has been creating, developing, and manufacturing
hi-tech products for over 20-yrs, Xedia and Xium formed this relationship to take
Greg’s most recent
development (at that time) in XPS100 directly to the consumer via the channel of
network marketing. More consumers will now see the benefits of XPS100 (especially
thru the use of the XPS100 Demo Kit and Demo Video) through in-home demonstrations,
creating a tremendous business opportunity for people like you!

Is the XPS100 Unit Warranted?
Yes, 1 year Manufacturers Warranty for full replacement. See our website for full
details

What about a money back guarantee ?
Xedia offers two money back guarantees. First there is a 60-day no questions asked
money back guarantee. Secondly there is a 6-month conditional money back guarantee.

Will the XPS100 work internationally on 240 volts and/or 50 Hz?
The XPS100 will work internationally on both 110/240V - 50/60 Hz electric systems.

Will the XPS100 work as a surge protector?
The XPS100 will not act as a surge protector. It corrects parasitic spikes and surges
on the electrical line but not high surges.
Should I plug the XPS100 into a Surge protector?
The XPS100 needs to condition the electrical line and so plugging the XPS100 into
a surge protector will negate it's work. Do not plug the XPS100 into a surge protector.
How many XPS100s do I need for my home?
The square footage of a home is not a determining factor for the number of XPS100s
a home should have. The best way to determine how many XPS100s you need is to determine
it by the amount of the electric bill and determining ROI (return on investment)
An electric bill under $90 may not yield the savings in a certain amount of time
that would justify a purchase of the XPS100. On electric bills from $90 -$200 one
XPS100 would be good and on bills higher than $200 two would be justifiable. There
is a point at which the XPS100 will lose it's efficiency so more XPS100s can be
added to the electrical system.
Will the XPS100 increase my electric bill?
Technically the XPS100 will increase your electric bill around .80 cents a month
and that is simply because there is a little LED light on the top of the unit.
Is the XPS100 Dangerous?
The XPS100 will actually reduce the heat of your wiring making your home safer.
---Back to the Top---
Does the XPS100 lower Electro Magnetic Field Radiation (EMF)?
The XPS100 will lower the High Frequency Pollution on the electrical lines of your
home. This is reducing the EMF radiation in your home making it a safer palce for
your family. To learn more about EMF radiation visit www.GlobalEMFDetector.com
How much weather can the XPS100 withstand?
The XPS100 is not designed to be plugged in outdoors. It is hermetically sealed
so it will withstand moisture, dust and heat wihtout a problem.
Is the XPS100 UL listed?
The XPS100 is not UL listed but it is ETL listed. To understand the difference between
the two licensing bodies visit the ETL website at
www.Intertek.com
You can view the ETL document here.
This device is a capacitor which does not reduce your power usage or the cost of your electricity unless you are specifically billed for power factor correction (or apparent-power “demand”) by your electric or utility provider.
