Hello,
I’m would like to know what energy my solar panels produce.
In my garage I have 3 counters like this :
Is there hardware out there to read this info ?
Or if you have an other solution, feel free to tell me.
Thanks !

Looks like there’s a pulse counter possibility too? Maybe something like Youless might work if there’s a blinking led.
Well noticed, didn’t even see that pulse
I presume that will be the way to go…
Is this available commercially or is it best to make it myself (ESPHOME)…even if I never did that…
The youless is commercially available in the Netherlands, but maybe not outside. Making one using an esp would be a lot cheaper, and you could combine the three instead of needing 3 separate.
Something like this:
Seems that will be my first DIY project
Looking at these photoresistors, could the XH-M131 5V (Xh-m131 Dc 5v 12v 24v 10a Light Control Switch Photoresistor Relay Module Detection Sensor Brightness Automatic Control Module - Integrated Circuits - AliExpress) be used with an esp32 ?
If so :
ground (gnd) pin on the ESP32 board to ground on the Photoresistor (3 wires seen 3 Photoresistors)
the 5v pin on the ESP32 board to vcc pin on the Photoresistor (3 wires seen 3 Photoresistors)
suitable GIPO pin on the ESP32 board to the data pin on the Photoresistor…where is that ?
