This may be the wrong forum, though it could be considered tangentially related to HA....
I would like a way to continuously log energy usage for my entire house. I do this today with my water meter, but have not found a DIY accessible power meter. Any ideas?
Also, anyone have some good tips to improving energy efficiency of HVAC system ? It's your basic 3200sqft two zone SER 10 electric A/C system. I have some of my own logic controlling temperature settings based on the outside temp and our presence in each zone, but last month or power bill was still over 500 bucks. I can get an interest free loan to make improvements, so I am open to going as far as a 5-7 year ROI.
