Plug-In Mains Power & Energy Monitor (L61AQ)

I bought one a few months ago. My system (tower, modem, router, monitor etc) uses 750-800 watts.

Ive also got one of those. My PC and monitor uses 130w combined.

You can use http://www.abyssunderground.co.uk/ca...nningcosts.php along with one of those meters to find out how much it is costing you to run too.
