Lidl did just a gadget a few months back - not sure how much it was but it
did
integrate power over time - It was a 13 Amp plug one side and socket the
other,
with a display and a few buttons, a bit like a timer.
Perhaps someone here got one and doesn't want it ?

It was about ?6.49 and it appears to work well.
I use it to monitor how much power my various incarnations of media centre
PCs use.

To bang on about this again - it may well be overreading by up to double.
The Lidl one I got does, on many PCs.
(Well, 2/3 power supplies I've tested)
(both of 2 Lidl units do, indeed)
