Wow - what a nice find. EGauge just got too pricey and setting it up reminded me of FORTRAN in college. Thanks for sharing.</div>

<div>That's actually what I prefer doing on most systems, to have exactly the monitoring I want, at higher precision than the AIO's give, and also independent of the AIO's server, wherever that may be. And accessible on the LAN, with data storage, if their
internet blips out too. But, not all customers can take the cost of a good egauge setup, which tends to run at least $2k if you start adding DC ct's and voltage transducers to monitor the MPPT inputs. $1k even for a basic AC monitoring setup.</div>

<div>I like data. Not being able to measure AC coupled PV input is far from my ideal in my opinion, but when there is no other practical choice, I guess I would do it. In fact, I have done ita couple of times.</div>
