Pasture and stalk ground renter would like to use an electric heater in his stock tank. Ditches and creeks have all but dried up. He is willing to pay for the electricity. How can I keep track of his electrical usage? I see there are some cheap meters on ebay that will measures up to 1500 watts. Is that enough for a tank heater??? I see the tank he is using is only about 4' by 3' so the heater might not be all that large. I know we could figure it from the wattage of his heater, but if we would happen to have warmer days this winter I am sure it won't run as much. Any ideas are appreciated.
