Test/review of Zhurui Power Recorder PR10

[HKJ]

Full review is here: http://lygte-info.dk/review/Power%20Zhurui%20Power%20Recorder%20PR10%20UK.html



I decided (was asked by a reader) to take a closer look at this power monitor.



It is measuring power and can calculate cost.



It stores daily energy consumption and can show them as a chart or a list.



Precision is good also at low power levels.



A look inside


Conclusion

It is an impressive little meter.
It can be discussed if it have to many functions, but the user interface makes it fairly easy to get around in all the settings and functions. Some settings requires a bit of work to adjust, but it is acceptable.

As usual, thanks HKJ. 

Interesting piece of gadget, price wise is also not that bad. Now its in my wish list, its your fault.

Thank you, I was looking for an inside view, it seems pretty good.

I am going to modify the case for wall mount for my water pump consumption monitoring

This is a fairly old review, is it still the same or have they changed the software or design?

I haven't tried it all yet.
But seems like the same to me

60W - Old School lightbulb
I suppose the 62.87W is due to us using 230v now , not 220v.

But as mentioned, i got it for the (hopefully still ... Good accuracy) , i need something to calibrate my Tasmota's by.
And a Metrahit would be nice, but unfortunately not within my budget (€14xx at Reichelt)

I believe they changed the display many years ago..
Purchased a few also back in 2016/17 and then another a year or two later, and the display in the newer one was clearer.

The other 3, are cheaper AC socket-meters. (WIFI, Bluetooth, and one optimised for temp) and significantly cheaper. Those 3 different models were in total around the same price as one PR10 (45US)
But they are also quite convoluted to use, and packed with anything under the sun, apps, IoT support, Google/Alexa, different app controls, WIFI and Bluetooth, and temperature metric, likely to also work with climate systems/sensors, also recall there is an air-quality pageslide.

The build & the overall use are miles better on these units from Zhurui, but also at a different price.
