Electrical Usage of a Pellet Stove and/or Wood Stove Blower

[amkazen]

Hi,

Anyone ever measure the electrical usage of a pellet stove with a Kill-A-Watt electrical meter? (V, W, A, VA, Hz, Pf, kwh, Hrs measured)

Anyone ever measure the electrical usage of blower on a wood stove with a Kill-A-Watt electrical meter?(V, W, A, VA, Hz, Pf, kwh, Hrs measured)

Anyone know what the electrical usage of either the pellet stove or wood stove blower is without using a Kill-A-Watt meter?

I live off-grid and lots of "phantom" loads add up to wasting the electricity I produce with my PV panels.

Thanks.

My Kill-A-Watt says that my blower on my wood stove uses 61 watts on the highest speed.

If I remember the formula for determing amps, 61 watts @ 120 volts will equal .51 amps. (w = va; a= w/v)

And, if I remember the formula for determining kwh, your blower uses .06 kwh for every 1 hour of operation. (w / 1,000 = kw; kw * hrs used)

Thanks!
