Great. What's also great? Thanks to the picture, I looked up the supplier of their watt meter (EKM). Only 90 dollars! The ones from Leviton and others typically run 150 to 300.

I'm ordering that asap.

We shall see. MT does seem to behave like the marketing department of GM and Ford so it will certainly be an interesting "test" for them.
 
posting here because i want to follow this. i gave up magazine subs YEARS ago. so when i want to read something, i go to public library especially since they have offered free L1 charging for almost 10 years now. great way to get a boost and catch up on reading, plus they have a GREAT childrens section as well. its win-win-win for me.
 
comments like this one scare me

The gear selector looks more like a first-gen Apple iMac mouse. Operation requires you to push down on the knob while choosing. | March 7, 2011 | Scott Jacobs for Edmunds
 
I have been interested in how much power we are drawing. The EKM Meter that was mentioned at the top looks to be perfect for this. I have wanted to track my use and they have a meter that you can read with your computer to track how much power you are using. I downloaded the software from the website, it comes preloaded with some meters. You hit "Read" and it gets the meter data over the internet from the 2 sample meters. Nice. It also looks like you can set it up to make graphs on the web with WattVision.

Does anyone here have experience with these, specifically the kind you can read with a computer? Thx

Thanks for the post, George. Some of those commenters really put you through the ringer!
