[RE-wrenches] power monitor hardware

[Kent Osterberg]

Kirk,

I've had success using the Efergy Elite True Power 
<http://www.efergy.us/index.php/usa/products-usa/electricity-monitors.html> 
for several customers lately. It is very useful as a feedback device for 
customers, it isn't a billing grade meter. Very similar to TED but it 
transmits data via 433 MHz radio instead of power line carrier. Noisy 
inverters don't seem to bother it. Efergy meters are ETL listed, and are 
considerably cheaper than TED.
