it's electric and Raspberry Pi - arduino

[Shane]

I got my TED-5000 a few weeks ago and love being able to not only determine which of my devices are hogs but when things are coming on when I don't expect it. 

Having the live graph in 'footprints' is great but only goes back an hour. So I found the it's electric software and ran it on my mac for a while and like it. Now I want to run that sw 24/7 to capture everything so I can look back an analyze what happened when I was not at home. In the vein of saving energy I did not want to run an old computer 24/7 (200-300w) just to get info on saving energy but wanted to use a microcontroller like arduino or Raspberry pi (built in ethernet) to do the logging but only take about 9w. 

Can this software run on either of these two pieces of hardware? If so what would be the setup? The Raspberry Pi is probably easier as it already has ethernet, video, and an SD card built in. 

Thanks

You just need Java, which apparently is recently available on
Raspberry Pi: http://www.raspberrypi.org/archives/4920

I don't know enough about Arduino to say, but my not-very-educated
guess for that platform is no.

You will need space to store the data... long ago I estimated
250MB/month/MTU. I guess that does mean you can fit a couple years on
an SD card, so it's probably fine for Raspberry Pi.

Let me know how it goes!

I would be glad to help if needed with the Rasberry since I have one to use for test purposes.

There used to be some code that ran on hacked routers... it was in C so would run on pretty much anything ... do some digging it should be trivial to port it over...technically shouldnt even need to be ported but run out of the box, just mount the SD and point the log file to it
