I don't have a Kill-O-Watt but do have a meter similar to it. That one
reads out Volts, Amps,and Watts. I have noticed that if I hookit to a
resistive load like a heat gun the volts and amps are very close to the
watts. If I hook it to a reactive load there is a big difference in the
Watts vers the volts times amps. That I understand.
I have not paid any attention to a switching supply that way. Is it
possiable the the watts and the V times I are not the same for your
meter ?
I assumed that the Kill-a-watt does true rms, but possibly not.
