Several people have asked me lately if I know of a way to monitor appliances without any invasive surgery. In this case, the person didn't have any status lights, and CR magnetics current sensors seem to generate mixed results. So I started thinking maybe there is a noise or vibration sensor out there that can help with this, and found this:

I requested a quote, and it looks like they are around $4-$5 for 1 sensor (when ordering less than 250). Does anyone know if this kind of sensor would pick up the small vibrations appliance would create?
