Uh to my grave ... must have some martyrs and vigilantes (not masked) to put a little order in this world of shit no? Jrigole of course ... (though) ...
ps for Delnoram (if you pass here) : did you start measuring your LED bulbs with your pm230? I hate to see if it's mine that are really nil or if this overcon is general on leds bulbs ...
Hello,
I would like to quote this message from the first page of this topic started in 2006, because I also have this energy meter PM230 and I just bought this one on sale to test http://shaddack.twibright.com/projects/ ... meterhack/
The PM230 does not give the right power rating when it comes to capacitive power devices like most low power 230 V ~ leds.
I have not read all the pages of this topic, so I think you already knew
Comparative measurements in Watts:
Measured circuit - PM230 - Fh9999
Led 6W - 10.8 - 6
led 7.5 W - 10.7 - 7 (varies between 7 and 8, normal no digits after the decimal point)
Electronic programmable socket - 8.4 - 0 (normal, consumes only a few milliwatts)
I can finally trust an energy meter
Too bad the characteristics of these products do not mention their ability to capacitive power circuits, but it must be assumed that current products are compatible.
