Re: what IS the 'Unbioctium'

[Stuart Poulton <stuart.poulton@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I feel compelled to highlight the following FAQ from the currentcost
website

"Why is the energy used different than my revenue meter shows?

The Current Cost system is specifically designed to highlight areas of
usage (and more importantly wastage) it is not intended to replace or
compete with your more accurate installed meter. It can complement
your installed system by showing you what appliances are costing money
now or recently, whereas your meter will show you accumulated usage.
The Current Cost system receives information every six seconds, your
meter continually records usage."

If you want to be able to monitor the true energy usage of your home,
then you need a tariff meter that has a suitable output for recording
kWh used. I'm sure in the next few years we'll see an increased usage
by the energy companies of such so called 'smart meters' if they'll
let the home user have access to the data is a different matter.

Regards

Stuart
