[Scottish] Plug In Power Meter

2009-02-02 Thread Thomas Greer
Hi all

I was wondering if anyone had one of those plug in power meters lying about?

I'm looking to find out how much VA a server in my house uses, before
I fire it into a datacentre..

I can buy one for £15, but i feel thats a waste of money when I'll use it once.

TIA

Thomas
