Open Tech 2008

Roo and I presented at Open Tech 2008 this weekend on the Current Cost hacking that has been going on in these parts. It was my first time presenting to quite such a large audience and all things considered, it was a lot of fun and went very well.

Although I took some notes through the day of the other talks I went to, Roo has done a much better write-up than I would. So I’ll point you his way.

    Hey Nick,

    Do you know of any CurrentCost equivalents available in the US?

    Hi Dan,

    good question - I’ve not come across anything that is specifically for use in the US but I’m sure they must exist.

    Not sure if you could just a use currentcost over there; I suspect it makes an assumption about the voltage whilst making its calculations.

    Nick -

    Very cool ideas — and brilliant use for an Arduino Ethernet Shield. Do you know when it will be available? I’d love to get my hands on one!
