Hi,
I’m wondering whether someone has built a system to capture meter readings from common household utility meters (e.g. gas, water, power) by just providing manual input fields in the HA UI along with some validation, graphing, etc.
It should be technically possible with input_text, some scripts and a history graph. But I’m not sure how user friendly this may be. I’m thinking of at least providing the last value in the UI as a reference for the next reading. Some validation should check the inputs for plausability as well.
Hi Do you know anything about Water Flow sensors, I have a water flow meter setup with MQTT, I would like to expose it to HA to give me daily/monthly litres. The issue I’m having is i have no clue how to expose it to HA. currently it only shows on MQTT Tasomota counter either pulse or timer.
