For real fun with the Killawatt, make sure to measure electronics when they are turned "off".
I have heard that up to %75 percent of all the electricity consumer electronics use is when they are "off"
A VCR, Sattelite reciever, cable TV box all use the same amount of power wether they are on or off.
If it has a remote control, clock, or blinking light, unplug it when not in use.
