Small Cabin Forum / Off-Grid Living / tracking power used

ackray Member	# Posted: 17 Mar 2013 22:50 Reply  Looking to start sorting out power usage and was wondering what other people used. While I have meters for volts and amps coming out of the battery banks I don't have the ability to finely measure usage. I purchased a GSI load tester, LCD display on a cord, but it seems to have issues with the generators and inverter power. The easiest thing would be a kill a watt meter but I'm not sure if it would work. Thanks!
