John:
If we can just get one more tweak: I'd like to change the legends on the
home screen to replace the term "grid" with "generator." I think this is
the final step to make the display make sense.
The E-Gauge engineers and tech support people are very helpful and
responsive to special requests. This is a good service model. I will
continue to use their products.

The eGauge can measure battery voltage now (using L3 input), been running
with it for months, and they are finishing up work on a DC CT to show
amperage too. Fantastic product, and now even more so for the off-grid
crowd. This is the first time we can really see what it happening in
remote sites - when the batteries run down, the generator runs, how loads
affect both; we can get emails and/or text messages to keep track of
generator run time (think failure to auto-stop), etc.

Now, what do you want to measure. Being an off-grid system, all you can
measure is the output. The normal use for an egauge is to compare load
with output in a grid tied system, or output to utility export/import in a
hybrid system. In the system I just set up, it would only show the power
output of the inverter, as the CTs cannot measure the DC output of the
solar system.

I am trying to demonstrate for a potential customer what and E-Gauge
display on an off-grid system would look like.
