I designed a small board to connect directly the Raspberrypi to the emontx.
I found this really useful if you do not need the rf link between the two (hence cheaper emontx). ALso it makes a nice and clean connection.
This is basically a logic level converter that makes the right pinout between emontx and rpi.
Get in touch if you want one of them.
Re: For Sale. Rpi to emontx interface. Direct connection.
very nice! thats a great idea.

Thanks Trystan.
I forgot to give the link to the forum thread in relation to this.

Basically there is nothing to change on the RPI side. Just the arduino sketch need some formatted serial output. Take a look at the link above an example ino file is given.
