Hey Richard,
I picked up a Kill-A-Watt yesterday.
I tested it with a standard* 60 watt incandescent bulb in an outlet whose voltage reads 123.6 V. The Kill-A_Watt says it's drawing 33.9 watts / 33.9 VA (PF=1) and 0.27 A. I had not expected that.
Would you please test a standard* 60 watt incandescent bulb with your meter?
* i.e. not "long life"
