I was busy around the house a couple of days ago and not paying attention to the Power Display, so later that day, I happened to notice that Pachube wasn't getting updated. Looking at the power display, it was reading zero. Obviously, that's wrong so I went into the garage and the Power Monitor seemed to be working fine, just reporting a zero level of usage. I reset the device and everything started working again.
This is the first problem of this nature that I've had since I removed the WiShield and went to an XBee network. The network didn't fail, something else was screwing up. I decided to modify the code to reboot every day and clear out any problems from software or memory usage. While I was at it I updated the description of the device with the newest code and pictures. Now, I'll just wait and see if this fixes it; may be months before I know.
Update, May 9, 2012: Had it fail again, more info here.
