Just a quick thought, but would it be preferable to attach something like this to the PCB using connections for current measurement rather than the ACS chip? Modules have the benefit of being optional, so you can skip them if you don't want them on a certain channel. In other words, it is conceivable to have 4 out of 5 channels that report and 1 that doesn't, for example. Because the cost of the module and chip are same, I don't believe there is any difference from a financial standpoint. -AM

@activemind do you already have a BOM? and is there chance to help you out? I would be willing to assemble one or two of the boards :bowtie:

I need some help in finding a case for this setup. Here is a list of stuff that goes in it: VA display shown above on the top or side. around 6 DC 2.1mm connectors. All the mysensors circuitry. I will probably be using the myS or slimnode pcb. hall effect sensor module as linked in post above. Still waiting on some of the parts to trickle in so that I can get a better idea of the space I need but I am open to suggestions. -AM

Excellent guide. I will take a look at the development branch. -AM
