i bought this meter earlier this year and have had trouble with it ever since. it has been sent back to WES-POWER for repair once, and it even has had a software update, the problem is still not resolved. WES-POWER says they are working on the problem . well its been months and no resolution to the problem. the problems are.. bugs in the software and that the sensors are getting interfearence from each other, this is causing inaccurate reading, which makes this unit totally useless to me. i am trying to get WES-POWER to take this unit back since they dragged their feet on resolving this problem. therefore i cannot get a refund from altenergy because its past their return warranty timeframe, if i knew this meter was gonna be such a problem, i'd have never bought it. main reason i was attracted to it.was because of its all in one design.
( no external shunts ) well the sensors are located inside the unit, and they are not shielded from each other, and the strey magnetics from heavy current are causing the other sensors to give false reading.
avoid this unit at all cost..

Cheeziest Product ever built by David Sperling

I've never written a bad review in my life but this product is just so bad. The only good thing I can say for it is that it hasn't caught on fire yet.

As the previous poster states the meter mixes the reading from the various inputs so you never really now how much power is coming in our out. I have solar array connected which generally displays 30 to 40 watts less than the actually output. My wind turbine shows up as creating 100watts of power even though there is no wind blowing. Voltage intermittently displays at 0 for hours at a time even though the voltage is a constant 25 volts on all of my other meters connected to my system. I could go on and on about how cheesy this product is but I think you get the point.
