Title: x10 Energy Usage Outlet Meter
Post by: arreedy on July 05, 2008, 11:36:42 PM

Is there a x10 module that i can use to monitor individual outlets or appliances enery usage.

I live in an apartment so I dont have access to my electric meter to use the all in one thing .. I just need individual monitors.

Thanks so much!! :)

I don't think x10 has gone that far yet in the 32 years they have been opened. They will most likely come out with it now that you mentioned it. rofl

X10 does not make such a device, but you could get a Kill-a-Watt from smarthome. Should do the trick, and they're really not that expensive.

I also use the Kill-A-Watt unit. Nice set of features. Many carry that device; maybe even some of the Home Improvement super stores.
I have the P4400 model.
The P4600 looks nice also.
