I uploaded a new driver. Now you have watts and kWattHours per channel and total. The way I tested it is I was watching Watts, and then I turned off the lights. Yup, 300 watts went away. Neato!
By the way...I think now that I won't actually have a problem calculating the costs, even if the driver is offline....at least, if you have a basic rate X kWh plan like me. The device gives me kWattHour values since the last unit reset...so I don't have to be online logging it.
I'm still going to see if I can parse logged data so I can apply day/night and weekend rates, etc, and peak rates. But I'm glad to know that at least
I'LL be ok.
