May be correction factors for temprature, if the meter is set up at one temp it may read differently at another. Would need the full context to judge.

yep i think so too but i just though
if its under reading by 15% i would
just add 15% to other reading as a guide
im still trying to find out my computers
consumption im asumming its
stack 250w screen 75w[labled]
speakers 25w so 350w
1 kw every 3 hours

as all bulbs are low energy and my
lecy is only £14 a month before internet
ive allowed £18 after internet to try not  to get
caught out
having trouble at the minuit swopped scottish power
to powergen taken nearly 3 months not to swop
as they argue it out im getting no bills
as im paying  by so not to worried but dont like
being behind[ oohh er misses] Shocked Shocked
