Hi Adrian: I use hardwares for both. For temperature, I use IR Thermogun like http://www.amazon.com/BAFX-Products-Infrared-Thermometer-Includes/dp/B00NI3= HNQK/ref=3Dsr_1_3?ie=3DUTF8&qid=3D1414050390&sr=3D8-3&keywords=3Dinfrared+t= hermometer For power monitor, I use a wattmeter like: http://www.amazon.com/P3-P4400-Electricity-Usage-Monitor/dp/B00009MDBU Hope this clarifies!
