I wanted to read out my new “smart” Energy Meter with HomeAssistant and only found that you need a Volkszähler or Hichi IR Head
I Tried with my existing TCRT5000 and found out that it Works and thought i just dump it here
You need:
ESP (8266…)
TCRT5000
I Covered up the Infrared LED as you not need it
The TCRT5000 is connected to GND, 3V3 and D0 to RX on ESP
you need Tasmota Smart Meter Firmware
And for my Meter (Logarex LK13BE) the Config is as Follows:
you can read out kWh directly and for the rest of the information the PIN needs to be entered first on the Smart Meter
With different code it might work on other smart meters to, however some of them need to be “activated” via light first
