I have bought this product:

Item ECM-1220 Plus. It's pricey, but you can get actual consumption right off the line. Nice thing is it's not fixed, which means I can take it to other's homes, connect to their computer, and get real data on actual consumption.
The very tool we need for the suit.
I'm just outside Guelph, have a smart meter and a TED 5000 unit. I've had the TED unit since mid Feb and I've just checked my bills against it. So far my Smart Meter is pretty accurate it seems, however, my bill is madness... the delivery charge is nearly the price of the electricity usage! (my average bill is around $420 a month because in winter its mostly over $700).
ReplyDeleteJoe, I'm going to do a post about monitoring devices in the next few days. Thanks for the link.
ReplyDeleteAnother 8% going to be added to our bills come July, thanks to McLiar.
