Domestic Gas Flow Monitoring

["Kevin Hawkins" <lists@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am looking at monitoring the energy consumption of my home and need to
find a device for the gas supply that can be interfaced electronically
somehow. Ideally I would like a nice low cost flow device that could be
installed inline with my incoming gas feed and provide pulses out rather
like the electricty metering does based on volume of gas used / flow rate.
Looking for some feedback of both consumption to date and instantaneous.
Cumulatively counting pulses is not a problem to estimate consumpton to
date
if needed.

Does anyone know of such a device ? I am sure there must be many of them as
there are in the electricty consumption field. Probably used by landlords
for secondary metering but the 'pulse' output is key - not just visible
dials.

A water one would be nice too...
