With spring here and my hippie needs approaching peak, I decided to invest in a Energy Detective to monitor my electricity consumption. After installing the sender unit, the receiver just needed to be plugged into the wall and my router. It has a web server built in, so now I just need to type http://power on my local network and I see this but with my data. Not satisfied with a local-only solution, I quickly exploited the API and created the new power page with a failed attempt at gauges that I hope to remedy soon. I expect heavy traffic, but this will hopefully eliminate the constant questions I get about my power consumption. It also reports to Google Power so the corporation that owns the planet can also keep an eye on my electrical usage.
