[Custom Integration] Hughes Power Watchdog Gen 2 (WD_V6)

I’ve been working on a custom integration for the Hughes Power Watchdog Gen 2 (the WD_V6 Bluetooth models) and just released v1.0.0. This is my first custom integration, so i’m still getting the hang of things.

I needed a way to monitor my RV’s power status directly in Home Assistant without relying on the phone app, and didn’t find anything existing for this model. It’s local-only and pulls real-time data for Voltage, Amps, Watts, Energy, and Frequency.

If you have a Power Watchdog Gen 2 in your rig, feel free to give it a try. You can add the repo to HACS as a custom repository to get started.

Just a heads up—make sure your mobile app is closed so Home Assistant can grab the Bluetooth connection.

Hope some of you find this useful. Happy to hear any feedback.
