Customer Reviews for Plug-In Mains Power and Energy Monitor

Sort by:

I'm finding this very useful as a tool to show my children just how much electricity they waste when they leave things on when not in use. I tell them that the more we save on bills, the more we can spend on them - and it's really working!

Measures everything you want about power consumption as well as the nature of the load and the voltage and frequency of the mains. Two small things would improve it. When disconnected from the mains (eg power outage or accidental switch off) it loses its cumulative power usage. It would be helpful if there an inbuilt light so that the readings can be seen in the awkward places where some sockets are located.

michael arnell - 22/02/2010

Maplin says: No sorry this product does not support that.

Q: Can this device be used for commercial use if everything runs from a 240v plug or is there a 15amp limit. For example I have a commercial dishwasher running off a 240V plug with 35amps. Will the device measure usage?.

Maplin says: This can only be used with devices up to 13a.
