I know this has been talked about in here before, but i can not find the thread. So i looked for them an again and this is what i found.

I wanted Something that will tell me how much electricity/$ My machine is burning, say on a one time use/ dayly / monthly basis.

I have found the <A HREF="http://" target="_new">Watts Up?</A> which seemed to be excatly what i was looking for. But its was pricy.
Then i found the <A HREF="http://www.safehomeproducts.com/SHP/SM/Electricity_Monitor.asp" target="_new">Kill a Watt</A> and and the Watts Up? here. the Kill a Watt is in the right price range!

Before i buy one i thought i might ask any of you what you thought of these pruducts...

Does anyone have one?
Why is the Kill a Watt so much less?

there was a more complete psu wattage calculator on a recent link but I lost track of it too. If anyone remembers it and can post it would be great.

what are some recommended power sources that are not to pricey. I saw one thread (may have been the one where I first saw that link) that recommended one that was about $30. Was it enermax?
