[collectd] [PATCH] updated ted.c based on Florian's input

[Florian Forster]

Hi Eric,

thanks for your updated patch :) I'll polish the rough edges from here,
but I'll need you to test my updated code before it can go into the
repository.

I have one question though:

You read out kilowatts here and multiply them by ten. This would mean
that the unit used here is 10kW. This seems way to coarse for home use.
Are you sure that's *kilo*watts? Having 10W steps would make much more
sense..
