I know someone who set up a webcam facing his leccy meter, so he could instantly shout at his kids to turn off whatever they had just turned on if it started to go any faster.

solution...
take a photo of the meter, print it out, and stick it in front of the webcam. It'll look like no electricity was used all day.
