[SOLVED] Unrealistic power consumption

Energy
1

Hi there,

since yesterday I use a “Nous A1T” to monitor the power consumption of my TV/ AppleTV/ Soundbar/ XBOX-setup. Before installing, I updated the FW of the device to its latest version and calibrated it using a 60W bulb as described on the Tasmota website.

I noticed a power consumption of ~45W when the TV (65"), Soundbar (Ambeo) and AppleTV is running, which is absolutely unrealistic: It should be around 140W- I cross-checked the modbus values. When playing XBOX, the consumption jumped to a more realistic value:

Interestingly I got similar results by using a Tuya Zigbee plug.

Has anyone had similar experiences or any tips as to why this might be?

Oh man, totally my fault. A few years ago, I must have accidentally plugged the tv into a separate socket that was out of my field of vision. As a result, it could not be included in the current measurement. Sorry for the noise :pensive:
