I have a kill-a-watt and it's good for checking individual 120V items. You do need to leave it plugged in for like a week to get a good average of usage. ie: your fridge cycling off & on in response

Hey Guys, Thanks for all the input on the mower & blade I clobbered. Amazingly, the crankshaft seems to be un-bent. The flywheel key that's designed to shear off probably did, so I'm gonna score one
