HERE is how to make it LAST, and FIX your dead ones - DON'T throw them away
This is a great monitor, BUT as many have noted it won't handle much power without killing it. The reason for this is that the manufacturer used a fuse that is THERMAL as well as 15A rated, and the temp on the factory fuse is only about 100 degrees... so if it gets even the tiniest bit warm, it blows. SO... replace that fuse, with THIS ONE that is the same but rated @ 240 degrees, and you have a unit that will last. NEC-SEFUSE-Cutoffs-SF240E-Thermal-Fuse-240-C-15A-250V/151264741020 I did it a little easier than unsoldering the old fuse off the circuit board, partly because it will make it much easier to replace the fuse in the future should you ever need to - I simply cut the old fuse out, leaving the leads extending up from the PCB, and bent the leads on the new fuse to overlap the old leads by 1/4" or so, and soldered them in place. It makes an easy repair, and works really well. I am using 2 killawatt meters with some adapters, 1 on each leg of my 50A RV power cord, and I run 2 6000btu window ACs around the clock, the refrigerator on electricity, 3 computers, HEPA filter, power tool chargers, and the electric element in my AquaHot hot water heater, and I have not had any issues at all since replacing the fuses. With this repair made, it's a 5-star product. Otherwise, it is poorly executed in its stock form...

Useful Tool for Energy Savings
This is a very handy tool to have in the home and shop. Everyone in the world who is consuming electric power should have one! I have used it to find out how much energy my household devices and small appliances are consuming and also to do some basic troubleshooting. It displays line volts, line frequency, watts, amps, volt/amps, power factor, elapsed time and and kilowatt hours. My one complaint is that the display is not illuminated so is can be difficult to read. A backlight with a pushbutton switch would be a nice addition.

Power Meter
This is a “must have” for anyone who wants to monitor their energy usage. I connected it to every 120V device. Surprisingly, my 2 cable boxes were drawing about 20Watts total when idle - & the same when watching TV. I then connected the cable boxes to a power strip & now shut them off when not watching TV. Also my laptop was always ON - drawing about 37 watts of power. I now shut the computer down when not in use. Try it on your electric coffee pot & you will be amazed at the power consumption. I now shut the pot off after my 2nd cup & don’t leave it on like I used to. I’m slowly chipping away at my electric bill!

Love the Kill-A-Watt
Know your line voltage during brownouts, know your current draw at xmass, or when that pickup is plugged in during the winter. A 9000watt truck heater will add about 100$ a month to your electric bill if it's plugged in all month. Works great on plant lighting also

Good, but could be better.
It does its job, but would be better with a rotatable plug and smaller footprint, as it blocks access to the second wall outlet; the bottom half of the Kill A Watt protrudes just enough that a regular plug can't fit into the 2nd open outlet. It also could use a backlit display, as it is difficult to see in shadowy/dark areas. This device also suffers from a lack of an internal backup battery, so in case of a power outage or accidental disconnection, all data is reset.

Worked on 1st use
Be gentle with this product so you don't break it. Where you plug in the device into this product was soooo tight, I thought it was a defect, but I worked the product in there the best i can. It's sooo tight that I thought there was a chance I could hurt the case of the device while trying to get the plug into it. Just try to work a plug in there in and out with short wiggles. I gave it 5 stars because it produced numbers when I plugged my desktop, and went up when I did a stress test. I did not test this product with a control group however to see if it was accurate. This product does come in good-retail packaging just like the picture

Great Device!
With only one caveat, this is a terrific meter to monitor single outlet/device electrical usage. I suppose you could use a multi-outlet strip with it, however targeted monitoring wouldn't be possible like that (except for group system-monitoring of all devices in an entertainment center lumped together for example). Plug a device or appliance into it and it will give you the immediate current and power draw. Leave that same device connected to it for a month, and the meter will give a reading of the wattage used over that time. It is an excellent tool for those who want to conserve energy to determine a plan for doing so. The ONLY issue I have with the design is that when it is plugged into the upper outlet a wall socket, the case prevents using the lower outlet - the same is true for two-gang outlets. Still, very much worth having around if you're interested in understanding your electrical usage.

Made Well and Great Features
Works well, as described. Quality, well made construction. Seems like it will last if taken care of. I have compared the values it provides to another source I have and they have been consistent and accurate. This serves it's purpose to me. You can see the real-time voltage coming from any socket and if you plug something into the unit you can also see the item's wattage consumption and amp draw in real-time. Quite useful to have.

Lantern string
The led lights on this string are very small and not bright enough. It is nothing like what the picture shows. I went ahead and used it to wrap around our tree, but removed all the lantern shades and just used the led lights exposed. Then it doesn't look too bad.

usefull tool
We have a few freezers on the farm to store meat in and I wanted to know the current draw and the amount of run time this device worked perfectly for this purpose. In addition I found one of them has low power factor rate I'm still trying to understand exactly what that means but i will consider that when time to replace one of these freezers.
