Re: [tlug] silicon cash eater

On the measurement front, would this power meter from Amazon @¥4,000 do the job? Or is there better/cheper? 

The pics with wiring diagram don`t quite satisfy, seems like it may require a small power supply (not included?) to run the meter.

Except I was just using numbers pulled out of my you-know-where. For

off for 80% of the month saves you less than ¥900.

You need to measure.
