When compared with an uncon- trolled creep in trials by the independent Agricultural Development Advisory Service in Britain, the Economizer unit achieved savings in power consumption of 71 per cent in the case of new-born pigs and 99 per cent for 2 to 3 -week-old piglets, an average of 85 per cent over the 3 -week period. The device controls the 250 W infra- red bulb used to heat the creep area. Two models are available, controlling up to 4 or 8 250 W bulbs.
