Here's a way better option IMO - buy one of these (Amazon Prime):

buy a short C13 to C14 cable like this:

Cut it in half, and wire it into the POW (super simple, I can take some pictures if people have any issues) - connect it to your WiFi, and voila! You not only have a more accurate sensor than the kill-a-watt, greater load (16a instead of 13a), you can calibrate it to a known load, and it has live JSON output so you could log it if you are so inclined. It's also tolerant from 90v to 250v, so you can run it on your normal household loads when you want, as well as the 240v ones.
I use these things all over the place, I think they're the best bang for the buck you can spend - plus it's a relay, so you can remotely reboot them. Personally I reflash them with this firmware:

Which makes them even better - although I've modified mine to be more miner-friendly.

These look awesome!
How do you wire this for 240V? The wiring diagram for the Sonoff shows L-N-G:
Household 240V has 2 lines on different phases and ground.
$17 on amazon, $10 on their official site. Hilarious.
official site ships from China so 2+ weeks shipping time vs 1-2 days with prime
$10.50 now + shipping
SF E-Parcel $3.28
