Yes I eventually discovered that link later on, but still didn’t work with my setup, so I jumped to using HASSbian instead, works perfectly well now.
I might get back to hassio at a later time, bc it’s got a few nice features the HASSbian image does not have.
[edit 20190518]
Just tried hass.io again, and it actually did work, user fault I’d say it was… I believe the problem could have been me being novice and not realising that setting should start with sensor: and not just sensor.
Anyway works perfect now.
For any of you that have the NUT add-on working - are you also running a Z-Wave USB dongle? Last time I tried setting up this NUT add-on I could not get my RPi3 B+ to recognize the USB connection from my UPS. I’m also running an Aeotec Z-Wave Plus dongle.
