WARNING！！！
1. DO NOT use in wet environment.
2. DO NOT connect the power meter to a multi-plug outlet to measure multiple electrical appliances at the same time, in case the total power exceeds the threshold of 1800W and cause a short circuit.
NOTICE:
The consumption and time will NOT be measured and counted when: your device is in standby or not working;the rated power of your device is smaller than 0.5 watt, but energy consumption is always measured since the device was plugged in. What data will be saved? Electricity quantity, cost, electricity p rice, cumulative time. (But NOT save current, voltage, power, power factors)You can access to Mode 7 directly by pressing the button “COST”.Press any buttons to wake up the backlight after it automatically turns off (Backlight time is adjustable).If there is an abnormal display or no response, please reset the electric meter by pressing the RESET button.
WHEN POWER SWITCHED OFF AND BACK ON, IF THE POWER METER TURNS “0”, IT MAY BECAUSE THE TESTING TIME IS LESS THAN 1 HOUR, OR TOTAL KWH LESS THAN 0.1 KWH. THAT’S WHY NO DATA SAVED.
The power of electrical appliances can not exceed 1800W.HOW TO RESET: If you only want to clear the cumulative data (Electricity quantity, cumulative cost, cumulative time) and keep the electricity p rice setting, just press button “FUNCTION” and “UP” at the same time over 3 seconds to quickly clear the data.If you want to reset all the settings, you can press the reset button with the reset tool. Don’t use a needle because it may cause the button to get stuck in the device. HOW TO SET THE BACKLIGHT TIME: Press and hold “UP” and “DOWN” button at the same time to enter backlight time setting. Now “bL-0” is displayed on the LCD and flashes for 10 seconds.Press “UP” and “DOWN” to select the backlight time. (bL-0 =10 minutes, bL-1=1 hour, bL-2=4 hours, bL-3=8 hours, bL-4=always on).Press the “COST” to save the backlight time settings.When you don’t want the backlight on, press the “DOWN” button to turn off the backlight manually.You can also press any button to turn on the backlight again.

Works well, understand its limits
Easy to use, the one-page (double sided) sheet is descriptive and helpful. When used with an outlet where both are used, you can run into a bit of a problem. The unit “intrudes” onto the second outlet’s path. Which means if a two prong plug is used in the second outlet, it is likely that it can be inserted with no problem. However, a three-prong lug may be too “thick” to fully mate (see images). And if a USB dongle or power-brick is installed in the second outlet (see images), it is unlikely that all can be plugged in successfully. It can only be plugged into the top outlet without fully masking the lower outlet. The manual is good at hinting at tricks to be used for properly measuring an appliance’s power usage, like commenting that the refrigeration compressor being on will engage power measurements, while hinting that when the device is quiescent, no power is consumed, and the clock isn’t running. The display is bright and easy to read, even at oblique angles and in bright, indirect sunlight. The reset tool provided needs to have a clip or compartment in which it can be stored. I will guarantee you will lose this; I’m going to attach it with a string through a hole I’ll drill in the tool. I think you can safely use a ballpoint pen, although the mfg does not recommend this. My usage of these devices will be to measure the short and long term power consumption of various devices in order to properly size UPS-style battery backups for medical devices. I am pleased with them so far. I wish I could give a 4.8 or 4.9 because of the limitations I’ve outlined here. Not as bad as a 4, and not perfect either.

Slay energy vampires in your home with this device!!
I had always wanted one of these to help understand power usage through my home. This one has good good features, works well and is easy to read at a distance. All you do is plug it in and then plug in whatever device you’re interested in getting insight into. Quick and easy to use!I’ve now gone through my home checking to see what the power usage is of various devices, such as our trusty coffee maker, lamps, TV, Internet and other such things. All this in preparation for knowing just how much power we’ll need in a power loss scenario, so we can adaquately plan for a solar generator.If you’re interested in finding out where the energy vampires are in your home, this is your tool!

An excellent and low cost way to measure wattage/kWh use around the house….
Got a pair of these to use for monitoring/measuring wattage consumption for various appliances and devices in our house, prior to having a generator switch installed in our house.In order to determine the branches to power through the generator switch box and how much each branch will consume for the total wattage and capacity of our generator, these two plug in monitors are proving to be worth their weight in gold!The display is crisp, the text sharp and easy to read and the backlight display, when needed, is a huge plus. The assorted options available for settings and view of volts, amps, watts, watt-hours, electrical cost factor, etc, are also excellent.Delighted with these and I might be ordering one more to monitor another major appliance we’d be using during a power-outage and generator use.My only regret is not being able to monitor 240 volt appliances like our oven/range and dryer, but, I’m searching for one specifically for this and if they’re available, I’ll consider getting one of those as well.As for these wattage monitors, delighted with their performance and the reasonable cost per unit. 5 Stars all around!

Excellent right out of the box (even with weird UI); great value
I use an Emporia power meter (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08CJGPHL9 ) to monitor whole-home and per-circuit power usage, but this product really allows me to focus on a single device. The display is clear and easy to read, and the values if displays are just the ones that I want to see. The “Function” button lets you cycle through the different display modes (e.g., Power, Voltage, Amps), and works exactly as you’d expect. Some display modes have a counter feature, which is also very nice – a graph would have been a nice add-on, but perhaps one wouldn’t expect it for the price, which I hasten to reiterate is very competitive. The unit is solidly-made, and has no trouble working with relatively heavy-current items, such as a 1500W kettle, shown in the pics.My only complaints about it are the directed to the user interface. They managed to find room enough to put four buttons on the front of the thing, but to clear/reset the counter display you have to push “Function” and “Up” simultaneously. I may be some sort of weirdo special case, but “Function” (mode selection) and Clear are the only operations I’ll ever care about, having set up the small set of configuration options. I expect that I’ll only use it once a month or so, and I’ll never remember the mysterious chord to reset the counter. I expect I’ll write the cheat code on the unit with a sharpie!

Excellent Power Meter
Simple to use, works as advertised, and delivered as promised. I now know how much load the Christmas lights outside are adding to a recently added landscape lighting system. I now have peace of mind.

Easy to install
Great tool to watch how much each appliance uses…plug in any thing with a plug.It is surprising how much electric some things use when they aren’t even ON! Easy to use and can save you money!

Seeing is understanding
Good product. It works nicely and I get to see how much a particular circuit is using.

Easy to use meter to monitor electricity usage. READ the manual so you know how to use the device. Works great once you have it figured out.

Meter appears to work well, but the build quality isn’t great. Removing the thin clear film from the display seemed to almost pull the display out of the casing.

Useful bit of kit, the back light is a must for these devices as often plugged in away from you, this stays on for a full ten minutes which is ideal to pop back and see how things are going.it can be programmed with your tariff cost and work out current usage but as using a spreadsheet I just use the kwh along with minutes used.Good investment and would recommend this model.

I was a bit skeptical due to some bad review, complains about the back-light and display, and also some terrifying pictures of molten plugs. However IF someone read the manual, it specifically specifies that the device configuration MUST be changed before use.Out of the box the power limit before a shut off is set to 3600W. Any reasonably knowledgeable person will set this to 1500W max, or even lower to match the expected power rating of the connected device.The display is fine, but must have the back-light on to see it. There are also configuration for setting the back-light timeout. I set it to manual, so I hit the “UP” button to turn it on, and use the “DOWN” to turn it off. You can choose other options.Some other complaints were about accuracy at low power, again this is addressed in the manual.So it turns out that most negative 1 star reviews were basically regarding issues that were addressed in the included documentation anyways.There are valid concerns, such as the device not being certified, or tested by various relevant certification bodies, and for this category of device it is desirable to have proper certifications. However, having the device certified will probably push up the price way higher than what this is selling for right now. Additionally the competition is charging a lot more for an inferior experience. So just take it for what it is.
