I wanted to crank up my ability to monitor the energy consumption in my home and decided to go with the Emporia Gen 2 Vue. For the cost and the ability to monitor whole home energy consumption in addition to 16 additional circuits, it is hard to go wrong. Let me know what you guys think down in the comments!

Died inside seeing you only turning the main off and not turning off the individual circuits off first. prevent massive arc load, turn off all the branch circuits first.
I don’t think your gloves are rated for 240V, are they? You made me pretty nervous watching your hands/fingers in the load-center… 🙁
you make me really nervous watching your hands/fingers in the load center…240V will blow your hand/fingers…please be more careful around that panel!!!
quick tip to make it cleaner (this is what I did). you can install a small recessed network box and run your sensor’s cables to that box through a hole in the studs, and put the module there. this way you alwo separate your electricity lines from any ethernet cables you might wanna run to the module if you wanna go wired, and it frees up your panel too.
