Upgraded Brighter LCD Display Night Vision Power Meter Plug, Power Consumption Monitor Energy Voltage Amps Electricity Usage Monitor, Overload Protection, 7 Display Modes for Energy Saving, Watt Meter

I recently purchased the Upgraded Brighter LCD Display Night Vision Power Meter Plug and it has been a game changer in my efforts to monitor my energy consumption. The LCD display is bright and clear, making it easy to read the information displayed. The night vision feature is a bonus and allows me to check my energy usage even in the dark.One thing I really appreciate about this device is how easy it is to use. Simply plug it in and it starts monitoring your energy usage right away. The device is also very accurate, giving me real-time information on how much energy I am using and allowing me to adjust my usage accordingly.Overall, I am extremely satisfied with this product and would highly recommend it to anyone looking to monitor their energy consumption and save money on their electricity bill. It is well-made, easy to use, and provides valuable information that can help reduce energy waste.

My kill-a-watt died after about ten years. This one is actually better and cheaper and the bright display is awesome.

Pros:It works for my needs. I have just used it to test various things from computers to small kitchen appliances, to christmas lights.For my basic needs I found this to be much more of a value than the kilawatt and other more expensive adapters. Those devices still are great things for more professional grade tasks.Cons:The display is on the wrong end of the device, to where the display part is at the top above the power plug passthrough. It makes it impossible to use it at all with a power strip when testing PC equipment. This orientation does make it easy to read when connected directly to an UPRIGHT power outlet, but not for any other ways. A rotatable power outlet with a switch would have been a great addition for this little device.No surge and spike protection. I saw no mention in the manual of any such protections for this device.No power switch for the device power outlet. Many small appliances do not have power switches on them. I wound up using a single outlet adapter with power switch with this device, because I didn't feel like zapping it or frying the meter when hooking up a waffle maker to it directly with the power on.Other thoughts:Can be a bit hard to read in sunlight and bright areas, but not bad enough to be a Con for a deduction.I would like to see them make a device that is more user friendly with a power strip. I don't like plugging my electronics directly into the wall, and as far as I know- this device does NOT have any surge protection. Maybe even a version with an inline meter on a cable, similar to an inline laptop AC power pack.I haven't gotten much into the options to see the various costs and other stuff that this adapter can calculate. I haven't really found the other options to be useful, because the data gets cleared every time you unplug the device.

I purchased this to replace my now dead Kill-a-Watt P4400, which insists the line voltage in my house is 145V, not 120V.Note: my Kill-a-Watt was one of the first P4400 models ever sold...at least 15 years ago. Anyway...This is not just an excellent alternative to the P4400, I believe it is superior. Here's why.- The display is huge and super-easy to read.- The display is also backlit...no fumbling with the flashlight I can never seem to find in order to read.- The housing around the plug is small enough that it doesn't block the second outlet on the receptacle. I can actually leave this unit plugged in without having to use a short extender.- The buttons make sense, unlike some other cheap units out there.- You can enter the cost of electricity to get an estimate of how much your appliance costs to run.-- Note: it appears you can enter only one rate. If your electricity has on/off peak rates, you'll have to pick one and go with it. This doesn't matter for me because I can do the math as long as the kWh is reported correctly.- This unit is less than half the cost of a new P4400. Might as well get two!I'm only a couple of days into using this, but so far, I'm loving it, especially the huge display and cheaper cost. If anything goes south, I'll come back here and update.Highly recommended.

Absolutely thrilled with this purchase! The product exceeded my expectations in every way—great quality, well-made, and performs exactly as described. Shipping was fast, and the packaging ensured everything arrived in perfect condition. I appreciate the attention to detail and thought put into this. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for something reliable and worth every penny. I’m beyond satisfied and would definitely buy again.

This is an amazing little product and a massive upgrade over the non backlit competitors. It is great to get an idea how much power some of my high-powered devices pull. I have a custom pc that is easily able to pull 1200 watts. this helps me keep an eye on my peak power draw and help to know if I can add that fourth monitor to the circuit or not. It is also very helpful for my audio system as my amp in standby pulls around 300 watts so again I know if I am pushing the limits of the circuit. My only real gripe is that there is not an always on function for the back light, you have to interact with the device for it to light up. This was a real bummer for when I had it located in an entertainment center out of arms reach.

I bought this simple device to get an idea of my electrical consumption in order to size or properly use my generator. I can identify the usage for each individual appliance/device in a given time span. This data is also valuable if you are trying to size a backup battery system, which I may be in the future.

worked better than my older "kilowat" .. easy to use and easy to read
