This is my first post ever, I’ve been here for a long time, but just reading. After all this years I’ve learned a lot so I feel like I owe you this contribution, cuz I searched a lot and I found nothing so here you go, a configuration example of the new Sonoff POW Elite or POWR316D for ESPHome.
Hi, first of all, thanks for your contribution. I’m having trouble registering my Sonoff POW Elite, it does not show me the current consumption etc. To where exactly have I upload this configuration?
Awesome! I was waiting for someone to do the hard work of setting up config and getting the libraries for the LCD on these so thanks! Will test it out soon.
Are the readings of your devices correct? For example, with an amperage of 15.5A and a voltage of 230V, the power I get is about 3.05kW when it should be about 3.5kW.
I’m still on ewelink firmware because for some reason i can’t use the serial port without errors
I’ve flashed the sonoff with the custom firmware. I’ve tested the load of some appliances first with a standalone reader first … In my case the readings
of the sonoff are showing the same results as the standalone power monitor.
Thanks for the answer. Could you explain how to flash this sonoff? I’m having problems getting always “unhandled exception” or “invalid head of packet” erros. With the same serial i’m able to flash other sonoff devices and ESP without any problem. My serial adapter have a cp2102 chip, so i don’t think the problem is the serial adapter.
I’ve tried with pair button always pushed, pushed for a while and then released, wituout pushing the button… without succesful
i’ve used esphome flasher. this video helped me in the right direction. ⚡SONOFF POW Elite Tasmota Firmware - YouTube
I guess this video is not in your native language but the enabling the captions might help you.
So I finally got hold of 2 of these switches (for the pool pump and geyser)
Now between this post and the official ESPhome example Sonoff POW Elite 20a (POWR320D) | ESPHome-Devices I got the switch working fine. However I’m not getting any readings on the power sensors (power current voltage energy) all reading “unknown”
I have another sonoff pow2 which shows everything fine and the have supposedly the same cse7766 sensor.
Any idea from anyone?

@fstof I’ve recently posted a problem with the POWR320D and the example you post, with the switch not working, but readings seems to work OK, not solved yet…
Try tasmota to see if all is working fine, i don’t think is a diferent sensor…
Below you have the link to tasmota. You only have to download the tasmota32.bin, upload to POWR320D, reboot, connect to the new SSID go to http://192.168.4.1 config your ssid, and finally choose powr320d template from the list. You can see all values on the web without configure anything of mqtt
