Calculating Power Consumption of ANYTHING with the Kill-A-Watt power monitor

  • Author: DigitalMind
  • Filed under: Solar Power and Off-Grid Living
  • Date: Apr 22,2008

The Kill-A-Watt power monitor gets plugged into your electrical socket, and is then plugged into the electrical appliance / gadget that you want to monitor. This is a great way of calculating how much power you need for your future renewable / solar energy system. Use it to calculate how many watts ALL of your electrical things take in a day, and then figure out how many batteries and solar panels you need ! It’s really handy for large things that aren’t specific about their power requirements.
