Hey Bob,

I actually have one of these(or last years model)
http://www.amazon.com/TekPower-TP4000ZC-RS232-Interfaced-Ranging-Multimeter/dp/B000OPDFLM

Didn't get it thru Amazon. At this time I think TekPower.com website is
having trouble.

I only got it for one project some years ago and it worked ok. Except
that I could not run a long term test due to the battery life.

I am presently having trouble remembering where the stuff is at as well
as what laptop I have the software loaded on.

Maybe it will fit you needs.

Good luck!!
