    LIDL energy monitor

    http://www.lidl.ie/ie/index.nsf/pag...p.EnergyMonitor

    # Enables you to monitor the level of electricity used as well as costs!
    # Displays total electricity use during time (h/min) measured in KWh
    # Entry of regional rate per KWh possible

    Picked up one of these today - it tells you how many Watts your PC is using AND it also tells you the Peak Wattage used. - Not sure how much extra of a safety factor is usual when specing PSU's

    Ah.. that would explain why I'm only getting 224V

    The earth is at the sides - Italians call them German type plugs - cos in Italy they use three pins in a line for low power while washing machines 'n stuff use the pictured type..

    Well, the one in the Lidl ad in the free paper I just got through my door has a 3 pin UK plug on it. I'm sure thats the one they are selling.
