 Review August 9, 2008
Yaak"r 326 (Yaak, MT)
Excellent product - I use this one on my back-up generator in the AC plug output (generator is located in our tool shed about 30 feet from house) - we have more than a few electrical power outages in YAAK, MT. It's great and quick to look at this instead of using my hand held tester (and flashlight in my mouth - this doesn't work to well with bi-focals) to measure voltage output from the generator. Also use one in the house to monitor the generator output. My appliances don't seem to work well under low voltage.
Handy tool to have August 10, 2008

A great little tool that does what it's supposed to do. It lets you know how much power any appliance draws, so you which ones are better left off most of the time.
P4400 Kill A Watt August 14, 2008

Simple, effective, and cheap. A real eye-opener. Really helpful in defining a cost-benefit analysis to determine whether replacing an appliance will be cost effective. I've loaned it to several people and they think it's great, too!
Exceedingly useful August 17, 2008

What can I say? Buy one and use it. It yields valuable information, interspersed with the occasional "does that device *really* draw that much when it's turned off" surprise. The P4400 gives you the raw information. There is an upscale model that might save you some keystrokes on the calculator.
I have thoroughly enjoyed mine. And it has been quite genuinely useful in addition.
Delivery was prompt. No problems.
So useful... I love this gadget. August 24, 2008

I don't know how I didn't have one of these before now. It works great, the display is clear (but you may need a light to read it under a desk, or behind furniture). I've used it to see how much power my PC was using to choose an appropriate power supply, and how much money I'm spending running that old refrigerator. (By the way, my mid/high-end PC only uses about 300W so no need to waste money on a crazy 600W+ supply, and a new energy efficient fridge would pay for itself in a few years).
Well worth the money spent on it. I highly recommend it to others.
