Yes I have a multi meter. problem with that is it measures RMS voltage and RMS amperage. Those don't give you true watts. They give you Volt Amps(VA). In AC circuitry that is. In DC you will get true watts.

There are three types of power measurements in AC circuits.

Volt Amps (VA)
Watts
Volt Amp Reactance (VAR)

I'll post more if ya want.

I need a meter that does the calculations to get Watts in an AC circuit. If I dont get a wattmeter I need an oscilloscope to find out phase angle..

yeah I found one much less than $500
