This one's worth the trip to the store.

Brands like Weber, Milwaukee, Yeti, and DeWalt restrict where their products can be sold online — and for good reason. In-store buyers get authentic products, full manufacturer warranty, and access to pricing that simply isn't allowed to be advertised on the web.

  • Authorized dealer network · Full manufacturer warranty & support
  • Guaranteed authentic · No counterfeits, no gray-market resellers
  • The brands set these standards · Be wary of sellers who don't follow them

Every order helps keep your local hardware store on the corner.

Why we built NHG
You might find it for less locally. Independent retailers often offer competitive pricing — some products are even cheaper in-store than online.
Real expert advice — not search results. Independent hardware staff know their inventory and the local conditions you're working in.
Keep the neighborhood working. Every dollar spent at an independent retailer returns roughly 3x more to your local economy than at a national chain.

About Product Overview

Take control of your electricity usage with the Gardner Bender Power Meter, a compact, reliable energy consumption monitor designed to reveal exactly how much power your devices pull in real time. Engineered for practical DIYs and everyday energy audits, this white compact unit sits between outlet and appliance to deliver precise, essential data that helps you save money and optimize performance.

What it measures

  • Energy usage: kWh
  • Voltage: volts
  • Current: amps
  • Power: watts
  • Frequency: Hz

Why this matters

Understanding where electricity is going lets you identify energy hogs, reduce standby power, and plan smarter improvements. By viewing real-time readings, you can compare how different devices draw power, determine the true cost of running appliances, and spot inefficiencies that old equipment may introduce. The Power Meter turns guesswork into actionable insights, empowering you to lower bills and extend the life of your electronics.

Ideal use cases

  • Audit household electronics and kitchen gadget energy draw—from coffee makers to game consoles.
  • Monitor entertainment centers or home office setups to optimize power consumption across multiple devices.
  • Test new appliances before committing to a purchase by comparing their energy profiles against familiar models.
  • Carry out quick, on-site energy checks during renovations or upgrades in residential or light commercial settings.

How it works

Simply place the meter between the wall outlet and the device you want to test. It automatically ranges to measure a wide spectrum of loads, so you don’t have to fiddle with scales or settings. Readouts provide a clear snapshot of current draw, energy usage, and frequency, letting you make informed decisions fast.

Key features and safety

  • Automatic Ranging for accurate readings across low and high loads
  • ETL Listed for safety and reliability
  • Compact, portable white design that fits neatly into any workspace
  • Batteries not included (packaged in carded packaging)
  • Designed for use with a wide range of devices to illuminate real-world power behavior
