Anyone got one?

I just dumped EDF and switched to SE. Nice little surprise waiting for me
when I got down to the bungalow:

that is a re-branded current cost meter,

current cost sell the usb lead and have some software on their site to
download, so you can get the data from it,

depending which model of the meter you have, it may store the data for 45
days or more... i bought a current cost one and it stores 90 days of data i
believe... whcih is going to be very handy when i the managment company
finaly replace our boiler, as they are going to be getting a bill for the
extra electric from having to heat the house with lecky heaters.... they
think i can't prove it's costing almost 100 quid a month extra, but i have
the graphs in both monetry units and killowatt hours... up from an average
of 3kw a day before the boiler died, to over 14 kw a day after.
