jumping into the energy use side of HA. I am able to pull electric and gas usage from my gas and electric meter via the RTL_433 add-on, then into mqtt.(mqtt.yaml) sample consumption data for electric looks like “4703043” and Gas “849654” - I am in the US.
when I try and configure gas in the energy module the sensor ‘gas_meter_consumption" won’t show up under “add gas source” as a choice in the pull down. I do see "electric_meter_consumption’ sensor and added it - but not sure I have the settings in mqtt correct. would love some suggestions for my config below.
