Just the heaters. I monitor all of my electrical circuits in the house. The circuit my tank is on I average 315 Watts for just the tank, pumps, lights etc. I see when the heaters kick on in the graph. Electric jumps to about 750 watts on average with about 30 minute cycles. I average 10 heat cycles per day. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Kill-A-Watt makes several items that monitor power. I use the power strip.

if you have the newest apex, it will monitor all the items(individually) that plug into the apex.
the classic will only monitors the whole bar.
