Did CR reported wrong energy efficiency?

#236
Did CR reported wrong energy efficiency? 1 Month, 2 Weeks ago Karma: 0  
I was looking at the dehumidifier ratings and noticed the explanation for energy efficiency is

"Energy efficiency measures watts needed to remove a pint of water from the air; the fewer the watts, the higher the score"

According to this, a 700W dehumidifier that removes 1 pint of water in 20 minutes would be rated as efficient as a 700W dehumidifier that removes 1 pint of water in 1 hour.

Clearly, this is wrong. They made the wrong measurement.

The correct measurement for efficiency should be KWh needed to remove 1 pint of water.

I hope they hire better experts to do the tests next time.
