A compact electricity usage monitor that displays real-time power, cumulative kWh and several electrical parameters to help spot energy waste. Save worry over unexpected bills and plan appliance use with confidence using MECHEER Power Meter. Is it the right choice for households needing clear, reliable energy feedback?
⚡ At a Glance
- • Monitoring Parameters: Power (W), energy (kWh), volts, amps, hertz, power factor, cost, minimum and maximum power, cumulative days and time
- • Best for: Homeowners and renters who want straightforward appliance-level energy tracking
- • Not ideal for: Households with appliances that routinely draw more than 2900W
Monitors multiple electrical parameters across eight display modes for quick checks. Built-in overload alarm and data memory help protect appliances and preserve usage history.
Legible readings day and night – with a white backlit LCD and black digits
White backlight illuminates large black digits while connected to AC power, and backlight duration is configurable across five preset options. Manual on/off and automatic timeouts let the screen remain visible without keeping it illuminated constantly.
Easy-to-read figures reduce errors when checking values in dim rooms, making meter checks quick and practical. Overnight or late-night readings no longer require a torch or phone light.
Accurate tracking for bills and planning – with multiple measurement modes and cost calculation
Eight display modes cycle through measured parameters including watts, cumulative kWh and calculated cost based on a user-set unit price. Minimum and maximum power logging and cumulative time tracking support longer-term analysis.
Fast identification of high-consuming appliances helps target where to save energy. Users can estimate running costs and plan appliance use more economically.
Protection and alerts for safety – with a 2900W overload threshold and kWh alarm
A default overload limit of 2900W triggers an audible beep and displays "OVERLOAD", while control buttons become inactive until the condition is resolved. A separate kWh alarm can be set to sound when cumulative consumption reaches a chosen threshold.
Overload warning reduces the chance of tripping or overheating vulnerable sockets. KWh alerts help prevent unexpected high bills by flagging predefined consumption limits.
✨ The 4 Key Reasons for MECHEER Power Meter

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What electrical parameters can be monitored?
A: Power (W), energy (kWh), volts, amps, hertz, power factor, cost, minimum and maximum power, plus cumulative days and time can be displayed across eight modes.
Q: What happens when an appliance exceeds the safe limit?
A: When power exceeds the default 2900W overload threshold the screen shows "OVERLOAD" and the meter emits a beep, while control buttons stop functioning until the overload is cleared or the setting adjusted.
Q: Will data be lost during a power cut?
A: Cumulative data and settings are saved automatically when the meter is removed or during a sudden power failure, though real-time values such as current voltage or instantaneous power are not preserved.
🏆 Our Verdict
Suitable for households and small workshops that want clear, appliance-level energy feedback to cut waste. A combination of multi-parameter monitoring, backlit clarity and automatic data memory makes it straightforward to identify costly appliances and set consumption alerts. While the initial outlay is modest, long-term savings from reduced energy waste make it a practical investment for ongoing monitoring and budget planning.
