I bought some of these MOES Tuya sockets, and I managed to get the electricity use data with localtuya, and that seems to work. But it looks like they don’t update often enough.
I want to use a socket to measure how much energy my Quooker uses (hot water boiler), and it seems it only powers on for about 10 seconds every 30 minutes or so, and the socket doesn’t store the energy use.
Are there sockets that have higher refresh rate or at least store the usage internally? Or can I get my sockets to measure better? (Can’t flash them).
[Additonal question] If I look for different plugs, how conscious do I need to be of the max load? I find many 10A plugs. My water boiler is exactly 10A/2300W, am I safe, or should I go for more?
