    Omni "mini digital power reader" or a watt meter.



    This device measures the amount of electricity of the device/appliance plugged into it.

    Ever wondered how much electricity does your appliance use?

    Now you can find out.

    The Mini Digital Power Reader records the operating parameters of appliances. You can see the voltage, actual power, electricity consumption and cost, and operating time. It also provides real time analysis of operating conditions and will alert the user for abnormal operating conditions.


    Purchased at ACE HARDWARE (SM Megamall) for PHP999.75.

    Got one a few weeks ago.

    I have two home servers with two UPS's, a printer, ADSL modem, Wireless AP, and a gigabit switch pulling 150W, combined.

    210W when I turn on the CRT monitor if I need to access to the local console.

    Have one. Found out the following:

    1. Old 25" crt tv uses 10 watts in standby and 80 watts on.
    2. Newer 36" crt uses 1 watt standby and 80 watts on.
    3. Samsung ML1640 printer not printing 2 to 350 watts. Wattage suddenly jumps. Dont know why. I just turn it off now when not printing. Have not measured wattage while printing.
    4. Almost same wattage for steel blade stand fan and plastic blade desk fan.
    5. 35 watts for laptop.
    6. 2 watts for sony cell phone charger.
    7. 1200 to 1300 watts for microwave oven.
    8. Ref 20 watts for light and around 175 watts for compressor.

    Is there an plug adaptor so I can test my aircon units?

    Wow. That's about the consumption of a small desktop PC or a laptop.

    about 1000 pesos. I just tested a 0.5 watt led night light. The light was on but the omni meter was reading 0. I think it needs at least 1 watt before it reads.

    Can this accomodate motorized appliances like an AC? I'm just curious how much electricity per mode/temp consumes.

    also does it have some sort of periodic monitor wherein for X number of time (h;d) this is the consumption?

    Thanks ^_^
