Thanks very much for your comment. I'd not seen this error before (I use MQTT to
connect to my CurrentCost meter, rather than a serial connection - so rely on
people
such as yourself to point out these things to me).
The issue is that reading data from the CurrentCost meter's serial port isn't
100%
reliable. Sometimes you get a garbled string, or an incomplete chunk of XML.
The code currently exits when it encounters an error
(http://code.google.com/p/currentcostgui/source/browse/trunk/currentcostcomlive.
py#67) which
in hindsight is a little extreme - it would be more sensible to wait for another
update from the meter.
I'm on holiday at the moment but will fix this when I get back.

Dale,
Thankyou for the update.
One other small point is the live page has for the vertical scale KwHrs when it
is
of course only Watts or Kw for a live power reading.
Enjoy your holiday :)
Ian.
