Great overall, but could use some work

This device is great. It's relatively cheap (far cheaper than anything similar I've seen out there) and it does exactly what they say it does. It's very useful to know how much power the major devices in your home are using. For example, I had no idea that my computer was drawing 200W at IDLE, so now I know that I should upgrade my power supply to a more efficient one.Rave reviews aside, the design of this device could certainly use some work.If you plug it into an outlet, you will lose both outlets...

great for measuring power usage ON and OFF

This is a very handy gadget for seeing how much power various appliances are burning.But don't make one reviewer's mistake, and assume you can calculate yearly power usage by measuring power use only when a device is on, and then multiplying by number of hours a year you have it on.(His example: TV use 3 hrs a day, so 3 x 365 x watts/hr)Many devices, especially the newer TVs, can burn power when they are plugged in but turned off. That is why this device is so handy--you probably won't change how...

Does what I wanted it to.

We just put a sump pump in a few months ago, and we can't tell if it's coming on.I plug the sump pump into this gizmo, which plugs into the outlet and it tells me how many cumulative watts the device has used.If it was more expensive, I probably wouldn't have gotten it, but the price is right for a handy little device....
