Sonoff POW Elite with ESPHome

ESPHome

Hello ESPHome enthusiasts,
I’m planning on getting the Sonoff POW Eliter power meter and flashing it with ESPHome. The question is, what sensor is the meter using (ADE7953, BL0939 etc.). I couldn’t find anything online, so I came here. Any replies are appreciated.

Thanks

Hi Pzdrs,

Thanks for your first post on the HA forum. I have just gotten a new sonoff pow elite (and I found your post). To be honest i didn’t even think to check the specs before buying as every sonoff device i have owned has been well-supported by Tasmota (and in recent years ESPhome). It looks like the power sensor is a CSE7766. I am planning on flashing ESPhome basing it off the yaml example here:

I will report back when i get to flashing it but i expect it will be quite similar to the other sonoff devices.

Just reporting back - got it running with the yaml example linked - There was an issue with the energy sensor not working until I commented out the baud rate in the logger entry - so i created a pull request to remove it in the example and it should be good to go.
