All electrical loads require a certain amount of power to operate,
so if you adjust your voltage down, then the current rises to compensate
meaning the SAME amount of power is still used !
just in a different balance.
They are simply taking advantage of peoples technical ignorance.

In the vast majority of loads the power will reduce with voltage, it does not stay constant. It is resistance which stays constant.
If power remained constant then dimmers would not work and a 240V lamp would light to full brightness on a 120V supply!
So explain how both an old type and a modern dimmer work. less power less light, same light, same power. S
Power is not energy.
Power = Watts not Volts - Same power, less volts, higher amps.
Energy = Power x Time - ususally kWh
