I have a Kill-a-Watt. There are great little toys aren't they ?
It's surprising how much electricity that some appliances will use.
For instance, I purchased a couple of 24" Lasko brand box fans and found out that they comsume over 100 watts on full speed.
I had one in each window ( one to blow and the other to exaust ).
No wonder my usage was so high that summer ! I might as well have just used the A/C !
