I tried searching for this information but couldn't find it...
I am going to install a receptacle in my garage for my 240v charger and was wondering what people suggest for monitoring the energy usage on the circuit. I want to be able to separate this usage from the total household electric cost. I've looked at the TED 5000, the EKM-25IDS, and just installing a meter can on the circuit. I think what I need is something that logs daily usage, so I don't have to worry about when the house meter is read by the utility company. TED 5000 is the most expensive, but seems like the best option. The other two just measure total usage.
What are you using for your energy usage logging?
