Electricity Usage Monitor, Briidea Power Consumption Watt Voltage Amp Meter Tester with 2 Outlets Electricity Analyzer Monitoring Device for Energy Saving

Does as advertised. The electric cord could be longer bot that's minor.

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.

Pretty good little meter that makes the same measurements as Kill-A-Watt, but in a more convenient package for me. The ~15" cord allowed me to get the display where I can see it on my workbench. I did not anticipate needing the second outlet feature when purchasing, but found that I was using it almost immediately. This allows one to attach and power two loads at the same time. The readout can be switched between the two. The display itself is just an budget, fairly small LCD without illumination, and with limited viewing angle. It is appropriate for a device at this price range, but I personally would pay another $5-10 for similar device with a larger, backlit display. One complaint is that the thing has an odor that some associate with inexpensive Chinese electronics...

Used in kitchen to monitor two coffe makers for amps. Great results

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

It works good a back light would be nice

It does pick up record usage well. I like that it has 2 plug in features. I only wish it would light up.. I have to use a flashlight to see because I have it plugged directly into a lower wall unit and it is hidden below a desk without lights. Otherwise, helpful to track what is using how much so I can turn off some items or unplug to reduce electricity bills

This device works fine. The two-outlet option is nice so you can keep track of the energy usage of two devices at once. But I didn't realize that it only shows one decimal place for the kilowatt-hour energy consumption reading. So if you are measuring a low-wattage device, it can run for 24 hours and still only show like "0.3 kWh". I didn't realize this until it was past the return window, so I'm stuck with it.I needed more accuracy on the energy consumption (kWh) display and wanted a back-lit display, so I purchased this watt-meter and prefer it: Suraielec Watt Meter, Plug-in Socket Power Meter, 90V-250V Wide Range, Backlit Large Display, Auto Cost Calculator, Overload Protection, Kilowatt Wattage Voltage AMP Tester, Electricity Usage Monitor. You can only test one device at a time, but the added accuracy and back-lit display make it a better option for me.
