Hi Paul



Some care is required when purchasing



There appear to be 3 versions...

The differences are all to do with the serial interface :-

The oldest apparantly has a usb type plug on the bottom ( not seen this)

Then there are two with RJ45 plugs on the bottom

On the older of these the port runs at 2400 baud and the xml data excludes
=
the historic data

The newer runs at 9600 and includes the full data stream



>From personal experience, ecogadgetshop, which is an electricity
compnay sh=
op, is selling  the older one with the limited data, but it is cheap at
=A3=
28 currently



I bought a new receiver from the Current Cost shop on ebay for =A315. They
=
also sell the complete kit for =A345 and serial cables for =A37.95
