Hi! Eon has released a dongel for reading power consumption. The dongel is called Elna and you can get it for free (if you a costumer). Is it possible to integrate the dongel to Home Assistant?
Just ordered mine. It would be for to have an integration. Eon app is sluggish and also I’ve got everything in Homeassistant from my heart rate to my network dns adblock. So having realtime power statistics would be neat. I’m trying Greenely integration, they get my Eon data, but it is always two days behind and also I didn’t manage to get any meaningful data from the hourly consumption entity (works well in Greenely app.
I’m unfortunately quite skeptical about the Elna device, it may be most likely proprietary thing for Eon.
Once I get mine, I’ll try to figure out what it actually is and if maybe it is something rebranded.
My Elna arrived today, it seems to work fine as such (in their app) and it’s sort of detected in HA as “Pure Energie Meter”, but then configuration fails. So perhaps it’s based on that thing, but needs some additional config? Any suggestions?
That is good news! I just hope they didn’t lock the device in some way (API access, etc).
I will investigate more when mine arrives. Hopefully monday, 2-4 business days stated when ordering didn’t work this time
Found this:
“The product of Pure Energie is a white label product of Net2Grid, other white label products may be found by zeroconf and work with this integration.”
The browser shows nothing when I connect to the IP address.
Here you can read about the Pure Energie meter and these values
description is that the device leaves the following values and it matches what you describe.
Power Flow (W)
Energy Consumption (kWh)
Energy Production (kWh)
Do you have good WiFi signal? I’m thinking it maybe did update in my case after it thought the WiFi is strong enough fo software update. I had shitty signal, my meter sits on the pole quite far from the house, so the connection was just enough to connect about 50% time. I have small shed close by, so I’ve stuck powerline wifi access point to it and now it has perfect stable connection. Otherwise I don’t know. I wonder if 7.2 is lower version than 7.14, or the opposite.
ver 7.2 is higher than ver 7.14. Haven’t found in the app how it works with software updates, assuming that you can’t control this yourself unfortunately.
Wifi coverage is perfectly ok, here is a screenshot from the app
