Unfortunately, those are consumption meters. Rats!
I want to monitor my line voltage, so I don't start
my washer during a brown out.


If that's all you want to do then install a Uninterruptible Power
Supply with an alarm. They seem to have cleaned it up now, but
when I first put in my UPS it beeped several times a week for power
fluctuations that didn't bother lights, or even the TV.

If brownouts are common I'd be more worried about my computers than my
washing machine.

I wouldn't. Electric motors hate brownouts. My washer has such a gadget,
but my computer doesn't. But I too wonder, where is the OP that he has
brownouts? I thought those were so, like, last century.
