Yes, I did, can't help if it isn't understood or contrary to the narrative of the fairy tale.

Watts is real power, costs real fuel to make. VARs are reactive power, magnetization currents for induction motors. Volt-Amps are "apparent power," but only the watts require fuel to make and do work, the reactive component do not. In a DC system, there is no phase angle between amps and volts, there are no VARs at all.

The point is PAS is a scam, and that isn't "terminology." They did up a nice demo video to show how adding capacitance in a system where only unloaded induction motors were running (highly inductive, lousy power factor, high volt-amps) would reduce the amps because the capacitors supply the VARs (reactive power). What they wouldn't say, and what that video shows you (because they also hooked up a watt meter) is that it does nothing for the watts, reducing "amps" does not reduce "watts" at all in their system, nothing for the electric bill of whoever got duped into deploying it.

Really recommend watching that video.
