Hey Bob,

I've measured our Neptune at 105 WH (AC, post inverter) per load with 
a Brand meter, which is better than the Staber.

Perhaps you are referring to stats on a model with a built-in water 
heater? One salesman mentioned that the new model would have this 
(questionable) feature.

We are really pleased with this machine.
