I’d try TED if I still owned my own house…
November 21st, 2009 by Brandon Muramatsu
I read this article on O’Reilly’s Radar about whole house energy monitoring.
The Energy Detective (TED) is a current measuring device that you connect in your electrical service panel and can be used to monitor energy usage in real time.
When I owned my house, I started a high-level tracking of my energy usage (comparing overall kWh usage for each month) to start to understand how my use of air conditioning in the summer, or say my computers and A/V equipment impacted my overall use of energy. With TED, I really could have fine tuned that.
