Monitor Home Energy Consumption From Remote Locations

Modern meters enable you to monitor energy consumption of your home in real time and online. You can also use these meters to cut your energy consumption and in specific models it is also possible for you to switch on/off the monitor from far off distances. Efergy offers different kinds of monitors but basically these are available in two categories, the online monitor and the wireless electricity monitor also called the electricity monitor. 



The electricity monitor is available from efergy in diverse models. Some of these are the ecotouch, e2 classic 2.0 and the e2 classic breaker. Basically, all these monitors are wireless in nature. The ecotouch energy management system not only allows one to check one’s home electricity consumption but also to turn on/off the home appliances from a remote location. It also has a new dot matrix screen that enables you to check the home energy consumption both numerically and graphically. One can also download and manage one’s energy data onto a PC or Mac using the real time energy management software link that comes free. 

The e2 classic breaker is another wireless electricity monitor that has an amazing software package with the help of which it is possible to track your energy usage on the computer. It also has a new and improved display and offers up to 5 different currencies and 4 different tariff settings. You will receive an audio alert when you exceed the maximum consumption target set by you. The elite classic is an electricity monitor that updates every 6 seconds. This enables you to see the impact of turning a light on or off or boiling the kettle and using your tumble dryer.

Monitor Energy consumption at Home to Reduce Electricity Costs

It is crucial for all to economize on energy expenditure. It no longer makes sense to keep appliances and lights on when these are no longer required. One therefore needs an energy monitor that helps one in the drive to control the unnecessary expenditure of energy. Today, there is a fine range available in the home energy monitor totally unlike those basic electricity meters of earlier days. 

Those earlier meters were analogue ones that only indicated the total consumption of energy. Today’s energy monitors from efergy are a generation ahead. These not only give you real time energy consumption data but some of them even offer graphic displays of energy data with the sole intention of helping in cutting down on energy consumption. It is also possible for one to access this data even when one is far away from home and switch on/off appliances from remote locations. 




The energy monitor from efergy is now available in two distinct varieties. There is the online monitor that takes the help of Engage, the online energy monitor and a platform that shows your energy consumption in real-time online. It is therefore possible to check one’s energy data even when one is on the move using engage apps for Android, iPhone and iPad. 

The other kind of home energy monitor uses wireless mode of communication of energy data. The e2 classic 2.0 is a third generation of wireless electricity monitor that helps you track your energy usage on your computer. The e2 monitors your CO2 emissions and will also indicate your carbon footprint. Today’s energy monitors help one in comparing energy consumption data with others in the neighborhood with the ultimate intention of cutting down the use of energy.
