Do you have to wait for the electric bill before you know the amount of energy you used and how much it cost?

Is it difficult to decipher your time periods of high electric use?

How accurate is your electric bill?  Is it difficult to verify?

PulseConnex uses pulse information recorded by your meter and organizes the data into a more useful graphing format.  The “little white box” is connected to the meter on one end by a 2 conductor control cable.  The other end of the box is connected to the internet by an Ethernet cable and Ethernet wall jack.  Once the device is properly connected, data is streamed from your meter to the PulseConnex database located on a major data center server.  Information is then translated by our software into graph form that can be accessed online through your PulseConnex account.  Pulse information can then be viewed in Real-Time or by Profile History to analyze energy use.  PulseConnex can also notify you via text message and/or email alarms if you start approaching a high level of use.  You specify at what point and how often you receive notifications.
