they have this one too... Now you can protect your valuable electronics and find out what they are actually costing you. Simply connect these appliances into the Kill A Watt PS, and it will assess how efficient they are while the built-in surge protection keeps them safe. Advanced features such as over current, over voltage, and no load detection provide clean, safe power to your expensive equipment.
Check the quality of your power by monitoring Voltage, Line Frequency, Amperage, KWH, Current Leakage and more. Now youll know how much power your entire computer or home theater system is using. With the innovative Kill A Watt PS youll have peace of mind in more ways than one.

What is the most cost effecient ballast to get for a 250w bulb? I plan to have bigger set ups in the future, like 2 years, but atm I am going to downgrade my 400w set up to a 250w smaller set up and I was wondering if
IS IT BETTER OR MOST COST EFFECIENT TO BUY A MORE EXPENSIVE AND HIGHER WATT COMPATIBLE BALLAST HOOKED UP TO A SMALLER WATT BULB ( for example a 1000w ballast hooked up to a 250w bulb) OR keep it standard with a 250W BALLAST FOR A 250 BULB?

I waS Smoking last night and i thought just to install a 240v outlet where your set up is. If your water heater is runnin out of a 240v outlet then you gotta save some money. I'm currently not doing shit right now with my set up but i was thinking of doing that my next time around.
Any comments? thoughts? I have not researched this yet but I will one day. It would be better if YOU could help.
