I wish I could find an alternative as cheap here in Australia - talking to a
lecturer I know who looks into these things it appears the cheapest he's
found is an order of magnitude more expensive here.. :-(
The Kill-A-Watt is available in a 220V 50Hz
version. Might have to cobble a plug/receptacle
that works depending on your local style.. the
220V ones I've seen have the round plugs and I
think you have the slanted blades in Australia.
some googling might find a source.
It's actually the P4400 from the mfr: P3
International, but the mfr doesn't sell direct,
however, an inquiry to them might turn up a domestic retailer.
cheers,
Chris
