They don't have everything, but a decent enough selection of various appliances and electronics sold in USA.

Nice bit of kit for those who don't own a Kill-A-Watt meter and want to do the sums.

I have a smart home setup and put an energy monitor in my circuit panel.  I tend to use a lot of power and it gives me a good accurate reading.  unfortunately for me at quiescence I run about 400 watts.  DVRs, computers, Av equipment and such all add up.

 

I can turn an item on and instantly see how much power it uses.  Handy and instructive.
