The kits include compact fluorescent light bulbs of various wattages, LED night lights, smart power strip, whistle that attaches to your HVAC air filter and alerts you when it's time to change the filter, low flow shower heads, dryer vent cleaning brush, water temperature thermometer, refrigerator thermometer, weatherstripping, caulking, foam pipe insulators, window film, rain gauges, etc.
