CurrentCost energy monitoring

[MichaelD]

I still use a load of CurrentCost devices to monitor my energy usage, (3 x EnviR, 12 x IAMs) but their site looks a bit sleepy, and the last PC cables they did don't work on anything newer than Win7, so, it all looks like its obsolete. What is everyone using now?

I use Loop which has the gas monitor as well as the electricity monitor. It's very user friendly and once you input your tariff it will also show comparison tariffs.

Thanks Mavis, Loop looks like a 'totals' based approach, with a very useful connection to swap suppliers.

I was looking for something to help me monitor usage at a more granular level, so that I can see what devices are on, and can work out what each device costs to run. For example, I was horrified to see how much it costs to run that second fridge/freezer that we shouldn't really need. With the detailed level info, I've been able to work out which areas I need to manage better. The CurrentCost plug-in Individual Appliance Modules (IAMs) do that, so I was looking for something that can do a similar job
