Hi,
I’m not sure where to post this as I do not have any clue on how to investigate.
Background: I have a digital gas meter and I’ve added this meter to the energy dashboard.
But when I take a look at the energy dashboard, it tells me I used 70m³ of gas on the 2nd of November
That does not feel like it is correct.
My question is 2 parted:
Does anybody know what might have triggered this?
Does anybody know on how to correct it?
Thanks a lot for your replies.

what’s creating the sensor? List all that apply
The sensor is created by a ‘SlimmeLezer ’ which I have flashed the ESPHome.
Based on the data is see, it looks like the sensor is correct.

does the sensor go unavailable when unreachable or does it go to zero?
I unplugged the device and I see the sensor has become ‘unavailable’

Then something in the sensor decided to make it momentarily go to 70 at 4pm
I didn’t think of that. Zooming in on the graph:
So this indeed confirms your story. For some reason, it went down to 0 and than back to it’s actual value (in this case ±70)
This means I need to check why that sensor went down to zero.
Do you have an idea on how to correct the stats?

I don’t believe you can correct the stats. Your consumption sensor, is it a template sensor or directly from esphome?

can you share that config?
Sure, It is based on what I found online.
