Summary: P4460 Kill-A-Watt Monitor
Comment: If you are interested in determining the efficiency of any plug-in 110v device operating below 15 amps, I highly recommend this monitor. One can get an immediate readout of volts, amps, VA, power factor, and watts being consumed. To get a reading over time with devices that use standby power when not in use (e.g., devices with remote controls) or devices with thermostats that turn on intermittently (e.g., refrigerators) one can leave the monitor plugged in for a day or more to get a reading of total KWH consumed and the total time, so that KWH consumption per month, year, etc. can be calculated. By entering your cost per KWH the monitor will give a direct reading in cost for the time plugged-in or per day, week, month, year. The monitor may be unplugged and plugged in elsewhere for a more convenient reading, since the data are retained in memory. Pressing the reset button starts over. It is helpful to plug the monitor into a power strip with a 4 to 6 ft cord for taking readings from places where plugging the monitor directly into the wall outlet is not convenient.

Comment: The product is very easy to use and understand. Once set up you can start to figure what appliances are costing you money and what the pay back is on new purchases.

Summary: Does the job
Comment: I was a bit disappointed after I received the item. Don't get me wrong it works as expected but I was thinking I could really find out ways to save some money by identifying electrical vampires. All of the electronics I tested used so little electricity when not on it seems kind of silly to be concerned. For example a 27" HDTV with a DVD player on the same circuit uses $4.53 a year when not being used. For some reason I thought it would cost more than it does.
But it is interesting to find out how much appliances cost to use if you ran them 24/7 for 365 days. The TV and DVD player runs around $98 a year.
My Wish list: I wish it had a back light; I'm 50 and can't see so well. I also wish it had a tilted screen; it's a pain to work with it while it's in the wall socket and catching the right angle to see.
Overall, it's a fine product.

Summary: power monitor
Comment: The P4460 Electricity usage monitor is a nice item to have.
I have found the things in my house that use the most power and have made arrangements to turn them off when not in use and in some, that meant pulling the plug.
If you have high electric bills, I recommend this item to find out why and give you ways to lower them.

Connect your appliances into the Kill A Watt and measure how efficient they are. LCD display counts consumption by the Kilowatt-hour just like utility companies. Application: Electricity usage monitor, Battery Included: Built in, Measures: Voltage, line frequency and amps, Display Shows: Large LCD shows Kilowatt-hour
