I've found in real-life measurement using Fluke Clamp-meter, Power Meters,
and Wattson - that electrical stuff is usually more than what it says on the
label, especially when electrical items get older! (I've no idea why, it's
just a real observation!)

head over to http://andysworld.org.uk, to check my real-time energy usage!
I'll turn the kettle on, and you can see it jump to 5kW! (if it really
excites anyone enough!)
