Anyone has a Sonoff POW script that the washing machine sent notification to your phone as a reminder to hang up laundry?

Anyone able to help me with the other sensors of the sonoff POW?
Here is the result of the following code in HA:
sensor:
- platform: mqtt
name: "Fridge Draw"
state_topic: "home/sonoff/server_room/1/power"
qos: 0
unit_of_measurement: "W"
value_template: "{{ value_json.Power }}"
- platform: mqtt
name: "Fridge Voltage"
state_topic: "home/sonoff/server_room/1/power"
qos: 0
unit_of_measurement: "V"
value_template: "{{ value_json.Voltage }}"
- platform: mqtt
name: "Fridge Today"
state_topic: "home/sonoff/server_room/1/power"
qos: 0
unit_of_measurement: "kWh"
value_template: "{{ value_json.Today }}"
- platform: mqtt
name: "Fridge Current"
state_topic: "home/sonoff/server_room/1/power"
qos: 0
unit_of_measurement: "A"

I’m using only the sensors listed in the Tasmota wiki
sensor:
- platform: mqtt
name: "Energy"
state_topic: "tele/pow1/ENERGY"
value_template: "{{ value_json.Today }}"
unit_of_measurement: "kWh"
Take note I’m using the Tasmota version of the firmware by Theo Arendst which is still developed.

is it measuring the energy consumption (kwh)?
I guess I’ll try that Tasmota firmware because I feel I can definitely get more data out of it, ideally I’d love to have the total kWh usage for the day that you’re telling me it provides 
From Tasmota wiki
The Sonoff Pow can provide Energy, Power, Voltage and Current information in different ways.
Message | Unit | Description
----------|------|-----------------------------------------------------
Yesterday | kWh | Total Energy usage between 00:00 and 24:00 yesterday
Today | kWh | Total Energy usage today from 00:00 until now
Period | Wh | Energy usage between previous message and now
Power | W | Current power load
Factor | | The ratio of the real power flowing to the load to
| | the apparent power in the circuit
Voltage | V | Current line voltage
Current | A | Current line current
Sorry to bump this thread but how is it working lately?
Just want to confirm - to set the update period just send once TelePeriod = 300 and it is stored in flash? Afterwards POW will report the measurments and they are easily picked up via the following config? Any bugs or problems?
- platform: mqtt
name: "Energy"
state_topic: "tele/pow1/ENERGY"
value_template: "{{ value_json.Today }}"
unit_of_measurement: "kWh"
- platform: mqtt
name: "Power"
state_topic: "tele/pow1/ENERGY"
value_template: "{{ value_json.Power }}"
unit_of_measurement: "W"
- platform: mqtt
name: "Voltage"
state_topic: "tele/pow1/ENERGY"
value_template: "{{ value_json.Voltage }}"
unit_of_measurement: "V"I too am curious about how well this is working. It seems to me that the Sonoff products are underappreciated at their price point. Why are they getting so little attention by the community? I can’t image paying double for a zwave device for the same (or maybe even less) functionality.
Am I missing something?
Any way to keep the state across restarts? Problem is that for the switch it publishes to the following topic every update.
state_topic: "stat/convec/POWER"
But also publishes state every 5 minutes via
tele/convec/STATE {"Time":"2017-12-12T08:34:50","Uptime":37,"Vcc":3.178,"POWER":"ON","Wifi":{"AP":1,"SSId":"","RSSI":68,"APMac":""}}
So wonder if there is a way to combine those
Bump. Anyone getting this to work? I can make the switch part work but not the power monitoring. I am using the tasmota firmware and instructions. Power monitoring works on the sonoff web interface but I can’t get it to translate to home assistant.
My works with this in sensors:
- platform: mqtt
state_topic: "tele/sonoff_pow1/ENERGY"
name: "Wash"
value_template: "{{ value_json.Power }}"
unit_of_measurement: "W"Thanks. I tried this and it still is not working. Here are my config files. Switch part works, power sensor does not. The POW project name in the tasmota firmware is “sonoff1”. I am using hass.io w/ the mosquitto add-on for my MQTT broker. Feels like I am just one small setting away from making this work. Appreciate the help!

Ok, show mqtt settings in tasmota.
Tasmota changed the message format to be inline with other sensors. See this github post for details
TL;DR
- platform: mqtt
name: "Voltage"
state_topic: "tele/sonoffpow/SENSOR"
value_template: "{{ value_json['ENERGY'].Voltage}}"
unit_of_measurement: "V"

Well it seems like everyone has managed to make it work. I added the correct settings and I see the sensors showing up on Homeassistant home page. However, it seems like my problem is different. My Sonoff POW looks like does not get the data:
15:44:52 MQT: tele/MissSilvia/SENSOR = {“Time”:“2018-02-13T15:44:52”,“ENERGY”:{“Total”:0.000,“Yesterday”:0.000,“Today”:0.000,“Period”:0,“Power”:0,“Factor”:0.00,“Voltage”:0,“Current”:0.000}}
This is what I get from the console of my Tasmota flashed device.
Has anyone experienced such issue?
did you change it to a pow device in the web GUI of the tasmota page. I had no power settings until I did this.
It was done before I asked the question. This is why I asked, because it does not work.
@Evo: My Sonoff Pow provides the same messages like yours. This is my working configuration:
- platform: mqtt
name: "sonoff-1663 energy today"
state_topic: "tele/sonoff-1663/SENSOR"
value_template: '{{ value_json.ENERGY.Today }}'
unit_of_measurement: "kWh"
- platform: mqtt
name: "sonoff-1663 energy yesterday"
state_topic: "tele/sonoff-1663/SENSOR"
value_template: '{{ value_json.ENERGY.Yesterday }}'
unit_of_measurement: "kWh"
- platform: mqtt
name: "sonoff-1663 energy total"
state_topic: "tele/sonoff-1663/SENSOR"
value_template: '{{ value_json.ENERGY.Total }}'
