Inor had his project for regulating the appliances at MT Acres. Even if it's just for monitoring & logging usage, Could that be used / modified to work here? Inor?

Not really. My project is adjusting the settings on the devices based on usage and the time of day/day of the week. It is not measuring the precise energy used for each device; it only does an estimation of energy used based on past usage and adjusts accordingly.Originally Posted by TJC44
It probably would not be too difficult to create such a device. But honestly, it would probably be cheaper to buy an off-the-shelf version if you can find one cheap.

With all the solar stuff these days, I'm surprised there's not an inline meter that would go (like plugNplay) between each 30A hookup and each RV's plug.

Yes similar to the link I put up. Yours says it can be reset so it may be a better option.

And it shows kwh used.

And it looks like with a long press (5 seconds)of the reset button the KWH sould zero if I'm reading it correctly.

Only thing I see wrong with it is it's Chink made. I think finding one that's not would be a very long search.

Hmm... I had something else in my head. That ^^ might work IF it can be used in freezing temps, it's also battery powered which most probably are. Not sure how this would interface (connect up) with either the pole or the RV, but y'all likely do.

There are inline ones. Plug one end into the outlet and the other end into the RV cord, the ones I saw were kinda pricey. Looked like they were powered by the circuit.
