I had an Aeotec Z-Wave Energy Meter on the main lines in my panel, but it died earlier this year. Does anyone have recommendations for a replacement? Doesn’t have to be Z-Wave and I’d like to be able to expand and monitor more circuits than just the mains.
I just recently saw a video by “the Hookup” that showed a cheap Shelly EM energy monitor.
I’m sure a quick Google search should bring it up.
From my experiences:
The easiest to use with HA: HS110 tp link - WIFI
Pro
- Easy to set up
- Easy to integrate into HA
- Has all the CE Labels and a general high Quality
Con
- Expensive
- Bulky
The smallest: Blitzwolf SHP6 - WIFI
Pro
- Cheap
- Very small
Con
- Needs dismantling and soldering for flashing
- Flashed firmware needs extra configuration (Tasmota/ESPHome)
The zigbee choice: Xiaomi Smart Plug - Zigbee
Pro
- Cheap
- Easy to integrate into HA via deconz or standard xiaomi
Con
- Needs an extra Adapter for non China Sockets
- Needs a zigbee Gateway
Others
Tekin / Gosund Sp1 - WIFI
Sonoff PoW - WIFI
I’m interested in monitoring entire circuits in my house, not individual outlets. I do have a few smart plugs with energy monitoring already
Sorry, misread that! I live in a rented place so I cannot measure all consumption
