Default Working fine!

After a week of testing, both units seem to be working great.
No more watt meter hang ups. The kWh rate setting is 16.61

The one on the HDTV/audio/entertainment load is showing:
7 days, 5 hr & 10 min
10.10 kWh
167.8 cost (Actually about $1.68).

The unit on the small basement freezer displays:
1 day, 21 hr & 17 min
5.011 kWh
83.27 (or about 83 cents).

The day and time displayed aren't the same, because the freezer turns
all the way OFF when coasting. The HDTV etc are always on, wasting power.
This is a nice feature, if you want to watch the total run time of the DUT.

I'm not sure what happened with the watt display hanging up,
but the power here isn't real clean, so it might have been hit with a voltage spike.
Both units have been reset (toothpick button) and now seem to be running perfectly.
