consistent modelling of get_power #76

Open whaleygeek opened 8 years ago

whaleygeek commented 8 years ago

A number of devices report different types of power, such as apparent, real, imaginary.

It would be nice to always at least have a get_power() alias that uses the most sensible of those. Some device will only report a power reading, others will have choices. It will make it easier to write more generic app code.
