Anything that uses an electronic ballast (light the compact fluorescent lights - CFLs) will not work with this device. That's because the device looks at the peak current to figure out the watts. For example, a CFL that actually uses 13 or 14 watts will erroneously show up as using 65 watts. That's because the crappy meter sees a maximum of 0.5 amps of current, but most of the time the CFL is drawing much less current. This device only refreshes about twice a second and cannot see a current that is pulsed faster than that. It will work fine for anything that uses a constant level of current, like a fan, toaster, etc. Also keep in mind that the packaging itself says it is only accurate from 125 - 1875 watts. That means anything using less that 125 watts might not show up very accurate. There are much better devices out there, like the Kill-a-Watt.Most of the consumer Reviews tell that the "Reliance Controls THP103 AmWatt Generator Appliance Wattage/Amps Load Tester" are high quality item.
