Wessex Power Technology SPCMini Energy Profile Logger
The SPCMini is a 600A true rms capability datalogger and is designed for simplicity. Clip it on, check the load with the on-board display, set it to log, press the start button and that's it. It's also clever - it won't overwrite any previous surveys without warning you and the logger's electronics auto-ranges to ensure the highest levels of measurement accuracy at all times. Connection to the PC is via Bluetooth - just like a mobile phone - so there's no need to plug cables into hard to reach sockets.
The SPCMini runs off a standard PP3 battery that gives it enough power for surveys of up to 6 months in the field should you so desire, but it doesn't rely on the battery for data security. The memory is non-volatile and completely secure regardless of battery condition, or even battery presence. You won't lose any data even if you take the battery out. Similarly the SPCMini has its own back-up for its on-board clock, so once set, it retains its all important time and date settings for up to 10 years.
