Re: AlertMe Energy Kit



Rob,

Nice review and I like your site. Two preconceptions of the Alertme and
other devices are:
- They use current sensors and assume constant voltage, fine resistive load
not good for inductive load. I suppose on the mains supply it is not too
bad but the appliance level it could be well out.
- The insistance of Alertme to be internet and subscriber based with
limited interoperability with other standards xAP, xPL, etc, etc
