My LCD is a Crystalfontz (4x20- USB) not a MO, but I was looking at the iMon VFD unit as well.

Any hacking efforts from me will be VB as that's my background (well really I'm more of a database developer). I wanted to get some ibutton/1-wire support in there too and that has a .net API now as well.

While we're at it, my other monitoring project was to use a current transducer to measure pump (and possibly PSU) current and have a power consumption display.

I was planning to do this on 1-wire with a DS2450 and have the parts, but also considered using the Velleman K8055 kit which has various I/O options.

Any other recommended I/O solutions?
