[TriLUG] remote power monitoring

[Joseph Mack NA3T via TriLUG]

I'm looking for a device, a bit like a kill-a-watt, that allows me to see 
how much power I'm using remotely (somewhere in the house), so I can plot 
it along with all my other graphs of things that are happening in the 
house and in my computers.

It seems all the devices that do this, show the power on a cell phone app, 
or send the data to a server on the cloud (good luck when the company goes 
out of business), or to an Alexa. I want to be able to poll the device 
every 5 mins and ask for the data (current/power...) without using 
proprietary code.

Thanks Joe
