How much does the waykar CTH150B cost to run?
About $1.93 a day, or $57.92 for 30 days, running nonstop at DOE's test conditions (less on days it cycles off at its humidity setting).
49.43 pints/day is 23.39 liters. At an IEF of 2.2 L/kWh that takes 10.63 kWh a day running nonstop at DOE's test conditions. Electricity at 18.16¢/kWh, the US residential average for August 2026 (EIA Electric Power Monthly, table 5.6.A). Each 1¢/kWh you pay above or below 18.16¢ moves the daily figure by 11¢.
How does the waykar CTH150B rank in its DOE class?
In its DOE class (portable dehumidifiers, 25 to 50 pints/day), 73 models have a matched Amazon listing. 1 of them has a higher IEF than its 2.2, which is 9% above their median of 2.01. On cost, removing the same 49.43 pints a day at their median IEF would cost $63.39 for 30 days running nonstop, $5.48 more than this one.
DOE's minimum for this class is an IEF of 1.60 L/kWh for units made since June 13, 2019. At 2.2, this one files 38% above that floor. 3 of the 296 in the class file exactly the minimum. Source: 10 CFR 430.32(v)(2).

Questions
- How many pints a day does the waykar CTH150B really remove?
- 49.43 pints/day, as certified to DOE under the 2019 test (65°F, 60% humidity). The older test ran at 80°F, so a rating from it reads higher for the same unit: the 2019 test explained.
- How much does the waykar CTH150B cost to run for 24 hours?
- About $1.93 for 24 hours nonstop at DOE's test conditions: 10.63 kWh at 18.16¢/kWh, the US residential average for August 2026 (EIA).
- Who makes the waykar CTH150B?
- DOE's database has no manufacturer field, so the record doesn't say. It does show 2 brands filing one basic model, DFH1-50EPD(04): waykar and Megalight.
- Is the waykar CTH150B the same as the Megalight PD-HPC750-WT?
- Yes, by DOE's records. Megalight files PD-HPC750-WT under the same basic model, DFH1-50EPD(04), with the same 49.43 pints/day.
