Re: Kill-A-Watt: AMPs draw on PE2950r3

Hi Brian,
I think that there is something wrong with full power measurement. With so low pf, the real power would be lower then idle power. Very strange.
When I was checking my PE2850 (2x Xeon 3GHz, 4G RAM, 3xHDD) pf was always about 0.9. The test were made in Europe (230V AC main power) but that should not matter.

Best regards,
Michael Widlok
