Just wondering if anyone has had experiance of the ENVI CC128 Energy Monitor ? I see there loads of apps for it and just wondered how accurate it is ? I have seen the posts on centimeter and owl system not been accurate so wondered if this was any better ?

I use The Classic. And have written a small program in VB.net to get the data in the PC. It uses clamps.
I don't know how accurate it is, but it's enough accurate for me.

Depends on what your reading, however, please remember this only reads apparent power ie current x assumed voltage, when you load is not in-phase the errors can be very large. It cannot provide real power reads which is what your power meter charging is based on.
It's a handy device, but not an accurate device for my purposes, but is cheap and has a great display.
