New and Improved
After a year off, I have decided to update this website, and let everyone know what’s been going on.
I have ordered a TED (The Energy Detective). It’a a device that allows you to monitor your current energy usage. I decided to get the extended one to see what my Inverter is producing and helping out. My main interest? Is that it allows communication to Google power meter. A way to instantly see your homes power usage, and more importantly key metrics for plotting.
I have decided to connect my electrical test unit that was previously in the shed, to my home electric system. this also includes my battery bank of 4 Deep Cycle Marine batteries.
This will also monitor and hopefully supply a small amount of power I need for a new project. It’s hush hush right now, but will be done by 1/1/2011.. I hope.
See everyone soon.
