Ok, I have looked at the high end manufactured ATC's and have a good handle on what they are about. I have gone through a lot of the threads in this section. I am sure my questions have been answered before but I have not found them. It looks like the heatermeter works like the cyberq and others for a lot less money. Building a kit is not a problem for me so that is not an issue. What is the difference between a LinkMeter and a heatermeter. What is a raspberry pi. I get the idea it is the interface for a heatermeter to a computer network.
I guess what I am asking is what is the best approach and how do they compare to the commercially available products. Obviously the commercial products are more expensive. I can build kits with no problem. I am not fluent in linux but because of my work I am comfortable with networks. I am a low voltage contractor and install alarms, home theater, and phone systems.
Recommendations and comparisons will be greatly appreciated. Pardon my running on a bit but I am not really sure exactly what to ask.
Thanks
