here is a link of a animocheck for a wireless power consumption meter with wireless sensors and software to measure the cost and kWh if someone is interested in it.

it is a non profit action...

because the plugwise is a bit more expensive, so i am going for this option.

Just short ago the following device was brought to my attention.
It works the same (detected by RFXCom) and the prise is all in including sensor and batteries

There is also a zwave version from Aeonlabs available.
the biggest problem with this kind of hardware is the software and the usability in domotica systems.

I have one of these http://www.northq.com/products/zwave/nq92021.html

It's Z-Wave, works fine, almost work in HomeSeer. :-) (Homeseer can collect readings, but can not read the historical data in it.)

But I don't know, if they sell them yet.

I use it with the Z-Wave stick. It has a good program, hence I newer got on with integrating it.

Morten

I have the Zwave "HEM" (Home Energy Meter) from Aeon Labs installed. Works fine, good Homeseer support. (latest version)
With a script the data from the HEM is written in a Acces database every 10 min. So good history in this way.
