Can anyone point to resources, reviews or experiences on monitoring power usage in 240v ac (US)?
Looking at the new energy dashboard features …. I have opower integration of my electricity usage and a nice graph. However most of my power usage is from a heat pump, and EV charger, and maybe a garage heater. All are 240v, larger current loads. So the new feature is something about graphing device usage with overall usage. So that would be cool to add
I started searching online and it doesn’t seem especially positive. I see a few clamp meters with integrations but also see reviews that they’re not very accurate.
That’s an interesting idea - is there a guide for newbies? I’ve never done anything with esphome.
I had been expecting to use the total power from my utility but perhaps that’s a better idea: measure total power with the same tool as individual.
Right, a big part of the goal is to identify whether untracked is significant.
I believe this is it: https://emporia-vue-local.github.io/docs/tutorial/intro/
Outstanding, thanks
It’s been a little while but I did follow a guide for the emporia vue.
There are newer versions and other similar brands out there if I find the guide I used it will be fairly specific to this hardware (certainly the base code setup)
I will look tomorrow
