Costco here in NJ has these for $26. And it's the better model,
where you input your cost of electricity, and it directly reads out
how much electricity cost is to run whatever you're measuring by the
day, week, month, year, etc. So, if you're looking to pick one up,
this is a good deal.

On the negative side, the one I bought doesn't work The SET key
doesn't do anything, so I can't enter the electric rate. Taking it
back to exchange.


I wouldn't be fluffing my feathers for spending $26 for something that
doesn't work.


Eh, a dud slips through even the best manufacturers QC one in a while.
Things can work through all QC testing and then fail after a few
thousand miles of shipping vibration. My earlier model Kill-a-Watt works
wonderfully.
