Wattage Meter?

[Heisennburgg]

Hey LTT Community. I recently just landed a new job doing repairs on computers and saw in one of Linus' videos recently that he was able to monitor how much wattage his PC was using, I believe it was a test with titan x's or it may have been the PC in the fridge video. I ordered a meter off of amazon earlier for work and was wondering if I even got the right item, I'll post a link below. Btw, sorry if I'm posting this in the incorrect place, I had no idea what category to type this in. Thanks everyone!

just want to add that my wattmeter looks just as shady, and it's been doing fine monitoring my servers for the past 6-ish months.

 

i guess wattmeters are just made to look shady for some reason.

The Kill-a-Watt is a good basic power meter with reasonable accuracy.
