Finally spurred into getting my own power monitor by reading in February Prospect how Brian Eno claimed to have reduced his electricity use by 30% using one. Found the Good Energy Shop had the best information about available models and went for The Owl. Cost - £33. This one has the advantage over the ENVI that you can take the monitor round the house with you to see how much consumption goes down by switching off items. Minor difficulties with set up but Owl customer services extremely quick to respond and get me monitoring. While on the subject of electricity, I discovered that Scottish Power (whom I am about to change as supplier) provide historical daily averages of your energy usage in kWh.
