You can pay for electricity anytime you move your finger
An old resident of a residential area, his family changed the smart meter at the beginning of this year, their whole family really felt the convenience of smart meter charge control system to life. Now, he can easily master the daily power consumption and electricity consumption.

Prepay electricity fee to avoid disputes over electricity fee
Mr. Li of a certain community is a big landlord who has more than ten houses for rent. He said that the promotion and use of prepaid electricity meters marks the gradual transformation of the electricity consumption mode of "first pay, then pay", which has been passed down for decades. He hopes to change the electricity meters of all his houses into intelligent charge control meters as soon as possible. Because when using the old-fashioned electricity meter before, there were often former tenants who moved away quietly without paying off the electricity bill. As a result, the later tenants came to him to argue with him because of the power failure. "It's very annoying that the electricity bill is clearly owed by the tenants, but our landlord is required to pay for it!" With the smart meter fee control system, tenants can't default on the electricity fee. "How much money you pay, how much electricity you use, everything is clear, nothing to do with others!"
Smart meter helps you save money

After the realization of smart home in the future, smart electricity meter can also be the most basic information source of users' electricity consumption, which can effectively support the smart home control system to carry out intelligent management of home appliances.
