I like the new "Green" features in HCA 9 (I have plus version). Does any one know of a way of outputing to a text file or querying or displaying ALL of the devices "Statistics of On Times Since Last Reset"?

Kind of like in a spread sheet form, this would be interesting to me w.r.t. energy savings, i.e., to see which devices our running the most often.

Something like this:

On Time
Device Since Last
Name Reset
-------- ------------
Boys Bath Fan 8 days 22 hours
Master Ceiling Lights 23 days 1 hour 2 minuts
.
.
.




I could then associate (e.g., in Excel) what my estimate is for wattage consumption of each device and what my estimated cost per kW is, then see which devices I may want to run less often to save money?

Hey, someone great said "a penny saved is a penny earned" :-)

Oh, and of course if HCA could do this automagically in the future (i.e., have a field to associate estimated wattage of device and a overall field for estimated $/kW, that would be even nicer :-)

You want to look at the Home - Geen Statistics dialog. There is a checkbox for saving the data in a spreadsheet before it gets cleared. It's somewhat smart how it does it so that it is in a good form to process. Give it a try and I think it may be what you want.
