## Description

## New version

This V3.0 version replace legacy well known V2.0 [version](https://hallard.me/utinfo/) that has been sold for years.

Please note that as USB/Serial chip has been changed, on PI for example device is now `/dev/ttyACM0` instead of `/dev/ttyUSB0` 

I have some first V3.0 prototype batch left (fully working as expected), as so they are available at discounted price other final V3.0 version until they gone. Some have plugged connector other terminal block like old V2.0 version, please check pictures and option needed when ordering.

Final V3 version have trimer pot, plug connector and are awesome red gold plated PCB

A USB adapter for French national metering system called "Téléinfo". This convert data issued from Nationnal Energy provider to serial interface and then, let the user doing whatever he likes with the data, such as putting them into Emoncms or sending them to database.

## Shipping policy

Due to import complexity, extented administrative task, French postal service suspended USA from delivery zone for goods, so no delivery to USA will be done.
"Lettre Verte", "Lettre Suivie", "Service Plus" shipments are not insured. The postal service sometimes loses mail—this is very rare, but it does happen. No claims can be made if this occurs. I cannot be held responsible for postal service errors. If you do not wish to take any risk, please choose registered mail.
Some letters may take up to 3 weeks to arrive. This is also rare but has happened before, so there is no need to worry if delivery occasionally takes longer.

Les envois en "lettre verte" ou "suivies" ne sont pas assurés. La poste perd parfois les courriers, c'est très rare mais ça arrive. Aucune réclamation ne pourra être faite si cela se produit. Je ne saurais être responsable des erreurs de la poste. Si vous ne souhaitez pas prendre le moindre risque, choisissez un envoi en recommandé.
Certaines "Lettres Vertes" peuvent mettre jusqu'à 3 semaines à arriver, c'est rare aussi mais du déjà vu, donc pas d'inquiétude si la réception est parfois longue.
