Arduino in SE England/London/Surrey

Hi,

I'm a new member in Redhill, Surrey.

I have just bought a Freeduino and Ethernet Shield from nuelectronics, with the intention of serving sensor data up to Pachube.

My interests lie in using Arduino for monitoring renewable energy systems, and reducing energy consumption in the home.

I'd be interested in sharing code and experiences with anyone in the UK, who is working along similar lines.

I've been doing hardware since the early 80s and PIC assembler for about 10 years. This is my first real excursion into AVRs, and hopefully with the Arduino, it will help me to improve my (non-existent) C skills.

I have some experience in wireless (433Mhz), datalogging, and low level telecoms- such as DTMF decoding, FSK generation and decoding for modems and lots of other things that you're not supposed to connect to the BT network. :wink:

Looking forward to learning from the Arduino Community.

I'm about to be in London for around a week.

You might want to check out my suggestion for a meetup.
