Well, this definition resembles the mouse picture above, but that's not what we're looking for. From context, I assume a "power leveler" is a machine for stabilizing the voltage coming into the house. I'd love to provide a link, but Google can't find any useful links for "power leveler" (except for companies that provide the above linked service.) I suspect it's not the correct formal name for the machine.

One item to adjust power - to decrease electric bills - was a synchronous motor that ran constantly and powered nothing. I doubt anyone has a large spinning electric motor constantly running and mounted to the basement floor. What is a power leveler? |

Second, the URL has many Monster Cable products. Monster Cable is a benchmark for scams. For example, Monster sells speaker wire with polarity. One end must connect to the speakers. Other end must connect to the amp. Some therefore believe they can hear inferior sound if wire is reversed - scams are that easy to promote. A $6 speaker wire is sold by Monster for $70. If Monster Cable is selling it, those products are scams. Meanwhile, nothing in that list is called a power leveler. What is a power leveler? I have never heard of one. |

I think it has something to do with World of Warcraft.
