I like this model as it has a power cord like a power strip, so its easy to use on the bench while testing equipment power parameters. It displays watts, voltage, amps, and power factor. Its accurate and reads very close to my Fluke meters. I do wish it displayed VA (Volt Amperes), though thats easy to calculate. It has other modes like elapsed watt hours, though I never use those functions. The Briidea power meter is now my go to device to get real readings of what computers and servers are consuming so as to not over provision power planning for these devices. The only wish is that it had an illuminated display. For 30 bucks, its a great price and performs well. highly recommended.

I used it for checking the power consumption on our Freeze Dryer

I bought this to measure the power consumed by my audio system as a way to gauge the output power. I have a couple powered monitors and a subwoofer plugged into a power strip plugged into the Electricity Usage Monitor. I want to know how much power is being used at any given moment. I set it to watts and it does indeed show the power used, although it is difficult to read because it is always fluctuating with music. My suggestion to the maker would be to have peak/average power modes for dynamic systems. Test Tones are needed to get steady readings. The results are that I was able to pull about 200W in my small-ish office. I didn't push it too hard because it was getting obnoxiously loud.I would also like to say that this needs a lit OLED screen with some flashy graphics. Put those outlets on the side and you have a slick piece that you might want to mount on your wall. It does come with a wall mount, but I don't think I will use it. The cord is too short and could use a flat plug so you can fit behind your furniture. I had to buy a 3ft extension cord just for this strip.

Easier to use in the field due to the design like a power strip compared to wall mounted like other units. Would have liked a backlit screen but most people have a phone with a light.

Use this daily for my servers to monitor power consumption. Fantastic value, great readability ina dark room as well.

It works as advertised. Display is easy to read. Seems accurate.It is very helpful to use to measure the power draw of various appliances. I am going solar on my property and this was great to be able to calculate my power needs.
