somthing i remeber about in class...
since AC current is alternating.. there is a point where the current is at 0. sin wave. so @ 60Hz the curent is at 0 120 times a second. now i'm probly starting a flame war here but if I remeber corectly... you mutlipy the wattage (VxA) by 0.707
to get the true watt.
anybody want to verify or disprove this?
