    Hi everyone,

    I’m Moises from Dominican Republic and just got a Vue Gen 2 device (i’m an IT guy). I bought it because (as most of us) wanted to know exactly how much of  my apartment electric consumption (detailed) corresponds to my electric service bill (because sometimes a bad person can get to hook into your electric wires to avoid paying). Since we installed 2 new Air Conditioning units for our kids rooms (because lately we have a very high temperatures in our conutry, 95°F, because of the summer) the bill came 150% the cost of the last month (we thought it won´t be greater than 130%) and as soon as the device got on my hands, i installed. On our country is not a standard to have an organized Breakers Box, so, first of all i had to deal identifying all the circuits (i have very basic electrical knowledge and that helped), and after 2 or 3 days (after work hours) finally got the information to start the installation of the Vue device. Right now i have a better understanding of our apartment electrical wiring(at least more than in the beginning) after 13 years living there. I hope to get the best of it as every day i’m checking on the App on my cell or Web on my computer. Still unable to connect to Alexa but i know is compatible so, after i accomplish my main goal (reduce my electrical service bill), i’ll be dealing with Alexa.
