So I am trying to monitor my power consumption on my s4 (so i can refund my landlord on what I use running it). I tried this smart plug https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XRX2GTQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1  but the second i turned on the miner it crapped out despite the 10 amp and 3600 watt listed specification (s4 is 1470w 6.3a).

Does anyone know a decent way to monitor my power usage (internet connectivity an added bonus)?

You could try the TP-Link HS110 smart plug.
You can monitor the usage from anywhere (integrated with their Kasa app) and start/stop it with just a click.

The US version is rated @ 15 amps / 1800 watts and the EU version copes with more.
I'm very happy with it, but I'm using it for applications that drain less than the S4.

I will never send private messages with payment requests for my auctions. I only communicate transparently via the forum (not Telegram, Discord, Skype & others). Please be wary of scammers.
