Re: USB data logger...

I agree with getting a scan tool if you are going to be looking at sensor data.

I am not a fan of such a low voltage data-logger. Also, the sampling is extremely slow. If you want to datalog other voltage sources that isn't in the 0-5V range of what you listed then you might look at this:

You will have to make the leads, but looking at what came with the kit below, I think it would be easy to do better. There are other better data acquisition units that are a bit more expensive, but offer a better interface.

This would be handy at looking if you are having intermittent electrical issues of a 12V nature (and also 5V).
