Nice.... clean implementation niksunen. I like the idea of monitoring total power consumption as well as individual plugs. The problem with monitoring each plug (as has been mentioned above) is the size of the coils available to to the job. Has anyone found something smaller we could use? I know there are direct wire solutions that are smaller and Rob could probably put together a board that would work bout I think some discussion would help him do the research on possible solutions,
The other issue is all the wires required to run back to the processor. I'm thinking a I2C solution would solve that. There are a few references (that I could fined) to that kind of solution but they are either discontinued or vaporware. Just my misc thoughts, I think the direction is really cool.
