I was helping a Mr. Bartz today find a way to determine if some of his appliances would overload a particular circuit. Besides just adding up the numbers on the various adapters to figure out what the total wattage should be, we stumbled on this nifty little device on Buy.com:

P3 P4400 Kill A Watt Appliance Tester


It’s called a Kill A Watt, and it simply measures the wattage usage going on for a particular outlet. When everyone is “Going Green”, what better way for a Geek prove that their wattage usage is lower than yours, than having a device that can prove it.

Ok, so I just thought it was a cool item.
