I have been here 4 years in Sanibel and have never seen a SECO meter reader but I cannot say for sure they do not exist. Possibly they are using meter readers until the systems are up and running in the newer areas. I do know their website says all the newer homes back in 2013 will be fitted with smart meters going forward and they awarded a contract to a company to provide the network back in 2011. I do know I have a SMART meter which is the GE I 210, CL200 pictured below. If I have a smart meter and my next door neighbor as well, I can only assume the rest of this area also has similar meters.

Thread from 2013..

SECO smart meters


I have the GE Meter I 210, CL200 meter which is clearly identified as a SMART meter...and is pictured in this video and the picture attached below. The narrator is a little intense but the meter pictured is identical and this was in California in 2012.
