Kill-A-Watt

Comment comment by PowerPointSamurai on 25 November 2007

Incidentally, the dude over at the Watt Podcast used to talk about that effect a lot, and had an one on his promotions (scroll down a little and it's one the left, or click this link for the Kill-A-Watt to credit him via Amazon).

Computer World also had an article on an Extreme Office Makeover where they discussed this effect and used the good 'ol Kill-A-Watt to measure the power consumption of every device and weighed the consequences of turning them off when un-used, changing settings, or replacing them with more energy efficient devices.
