"I reiterated my requests, similar to when I did in 2015, such as command line recording per-rail and per-port or perhaps some form of server level and command line control."
I think the better answer here would be to try to get them to document the protocol they're using, so their own software can focus on the core users but those who have more specific wants/needs can fill in the gaps themselves. Make it communicate over some standard and easily interfaced method like Bluetooth Serial Port Profile or USB Communications Port Profile with a sane protocol and suddenly any bored geek on any operating system can whip up a monitoring tool for their own desires in whatever programming or scripting language they prefer. Everything works with a virtual serial port.
I don't understand all that much about electrical components and PSUs, but EVGAs 1000W Titanium PSU goes for 280 USD at the present date (and Seasonics Prime is slated for release, really waiting for more news on this), so that's already at least 220 USD more for monitoring components. Quite the premium price, though I suppose that it's oriented towards overclockers more than gamers. Still, I do like the case design, its discrete and minimalist.

Those modular connectors look like a short waiting to happen. Why do they insist on using male connectors?danjw - Saturday, January 16, 2016 - link
How does this differ from what Corsair offers with their "i" PSUs, other than the addition of bluetooth?norBit - Wednesday, January 20, 2016 - link
