Product Description
Simply connect appliances to the Kill A WattTM, and it will assess how efficient they are. The large LCD display shows consumption by the Kilowatt-hour, just like the power company, and also displays voltage (V), line current (Hz), current (I) and more. Students can calculate the cost to run any device with this inexpensive and easy-to-use meter.
Product Details
Product Dimensions:
6.2 x 8.6 x 2.5 inches ; 15.2 ounces
After several astronomical electric bills I decided I needed to find out what is consuming the most power in my house. The Kill a Watt Meter has done an excellent job to that end. It is very easy to use. It will tell you instantly if an appliance is an energy hog or you can let it run for whatever time period you want to determine your electrical usage/costs per hour/day/month/year. (I use a spreadsheet for the calculations) I think this is one of the best meter purchases I have made in quite while.

Does what it says it does. It does not have the bells and whistles of the pricier units, so don't think you will be able to do complex spreadsheet displays, automatically, as you plan your alternative energy home. If you need to do multi-level calculations, go with the more expensive units out there. IF, OTOH, you simply want to know how many watts a given device is using over a specific time period, and you are OK with keeping a pencil and tablet in hand, this is your baby.

This is a nice addition to this retired EE's toolbox. It appears to display all the basic AC parameters sensibly and accurately. I'm using it to monitor KWH use by the automatic electric pumps in my home water system. Since the results are only meaningful if the wall clock time is also known, the "Kill a Watt Meter" (silly name) records that also. However, my rural area is subject to frequent brief (several seconds) power outages due to thunderstorm lightning surges. These sometimes reset the recording, losing days of accumulated data. I would like to see a capability added to the device to store the accumulated data (time and KWH) and resume recording after the brief outage.

This unit is what I have been looking for for a long time. It is not a simple one function piece of equipment. It is eassy tol use and I found it supplied me with the information I was looking for, My son looked at it and promply took it home. " I will probably never see it again" . I would highly recommend it. When my son fouknd out what it was costing to run his 20 year plus frezer he went out and bought a new one.

It does what it's supposed to do. I wanted to know how much it costs to run my basement dehumidifier. It was more than I thought, quite a revelation. So now I'm experimenting with different dehumidifier settings. Next will be my chest deep freezer.
