How do you reset accumulated stats (like KWh used) without resetting configurations you have programmed in (like "cost/KWh in your area")?

I never programmed the cost per KWh so I never worried about resetting when moving from device to device. I have had the unit for a couple months and first used it for a month on my 30 year old fridge. It used 100 KWh during that month. My tier 1 cost is $.13/KWh so I know it cost $13/mo to run. It is now on a freezer in my garage for a month. Its a lot newer and so far used a lot less that the fridge. Sorry I couldn't help you but I never bothered programming because of multiple tiers of electricity cost. Now I have gone solar so I am always in tier 1.

PEN: As I said the instructions are WORTHLESS Have been trying to figure out the same thing. Have emailed Ensupra many times NO feedback Could not find a phone number anywere. Would like to return it but cannot. Need everyone to send them an email then they may give a ----

Mine re-starts with the same adjusted shut-down settings. If I tweaked a setting while in a earlier saved program, the tweak also returns after power-cycling. There's a clear to "pre-set's" function that returns mine to the earlier saved fixed program settings. I went with another unit and can't recall the menu/page. Their customer service was helpful.

No, it doesn't. But most Electric companies offer you a precise hourly khw usage overview online, so you can look it up after you've charged at a specific time. I charge my 500e at midnight with an off peak rate and it consumes round about 7kwh per hour.

I agree. I see no evidence of this feature in the instructions. But there may be a capacitor in it that holds the settings even though it may be necessary to reset the current time when the power comes back on. Perhaps that is what they mean?

I just paid the initial software fee, no other fees. I haven't tried to clear fault codes. I've used the software to start the generator in exercise mode. Check out the youtube video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCI2oC64dRw.

My unit loses all settings with power failures and need to be reset in all respects.

My Kill A Watt recorded this as 0.009 kWh per day. It was in 'Timer' mode, the knobs were all in the 'on' position, and I didn't have something plugged in while I was checking.

You need to do some work and find out how many KW's you use per 24 hour period. This will tell you how much Solar you will need.

It will measure the kWh used by whatever is pluged in to it. It will also aggregate the total kWh used for a period of time. I used it for deciding how big of a ups I need for my nas and router.

It accumulates until you disconnect power so you can see the total aH that have been used. It also gives peak and current AMP readings.

I'm getting this info from a google search, so I haven't tried this and couldn't seem to find it in the manual. Somebody suggested the following: "To reset all settings, go into the menu, the SET UP, then SYSTEM. You should see a SET-UP RESET option in there."

Basically you push buttons to view present voltage current and watts or power factor and accumulated kWh (energy consumption over time). This article might be helpful: http://greenhomearchitect.com/2013/11/22/weekend-project-where-is-all-my-electricity-really-going/

We recommend calling your local electric company as rates vary across the country. Note that the amount of electricity used by the unit depends on the setting selected (wattage) and how often it is running.

This question made me think a bit.....I don't recall ever having to reset the thermostat. And, I know we've lost power a few times. Hope this helps!

There's another version that does the math for you, I think. With this cheaper version, you do the math yourself. Once you put the formula in a spreadsheet, though, you can just copy-n-paste for each device you measure. And this way you can customize the math for exactly your electric rates, instead of some national average.

The thermostat retains the last settings if that is your question. If power is out, your HVAC is out of commission anyway :-)

what you are seeing is an estimate based on the last hour or so of usage, that will jump all over the place.What does not jump all over is the amount of power left, for instance 50%, 75% etc.Just base your usage for how long it took you to get to 50% using the settings you normally keep it at.
