monitoring equipment--oh say have you seen? [RE-wrenches]

Travis,

'Glad to hear you made it through your surgery OK.  I haven't yet used Ethan
Brand's neat looking meter/kWhs counter, but have spoken to him and it looks
good on paper.  I've got it spec'ed out on a proposal I submitted for a
grid-connected system here on the Big Island of Hawai'i.  I came across the
HEXAPLEX blurb in Home Power.  I guess that I'm just waiting for a wrench or
two to say that they've used these meters already and that they work, as
Tony the Tiger used to say, "GREATTTTTTT."

I hope that your recovery is swift.

Marco,
Have you checked out the newest multi-channel Brand unit?  Has anyone for
that matter?  I'm pretty happy with the other Brand power meters that I have
and am giving thought to getting one of his multi-channel recording units
Also trace has a multi-channel unit but I don't know if it counts kWh's.
Before I bought the Trace one, I'd spend some time with the Grainger
catalogue.  The last time I looked at Grainger they had comparable units
(maybe even a few more features) for a little less money.

I'm currently recovering from emergency appendix surgery and won't being
doing much other than reading and surfing the internet for the next week so
I'll look around some and let you know what I find.  Laproscopic, only 3
small cuts.  Checked in the hospital at 10pm and out the next day by 5:30
pm.  I'm impressed.
