I've just fixed a problem I caused ("What's new?" you ask!)
I added a clamp meter power monitor to my garage sub-panel, but it kept going offline. After a lot of head scratching I discovered it only worked when the lights were on in the garage - i.e. when I'm in there. I'd hooked its power into the switched live of the lights... Doh!

Wowza! Incandescent lights use ALL the electrons. This is five sets of twenty-five C9 lights, totaling one-hundred, twenty-five C9 bulbs. The power floats around 850 watts when the sets are all on.

I realized I had an unused PyPortal around, so yesterday evening I quickly hacked together a (solar, battery, house) power display. Pushing the data to it using MQTT.

Obviously want to make it prettier and include some more values on it, but quite functional as a first test.

The circuitpython doc is still as hard to search as before, it could use a browsable list of libraries

Since putting some #PowerMonitoring in I'm quite surprised by how much power the dishwasher and/or washing machine use...

Install the excellent scaphandre https://github.com/hubblo-org/scaphandre?tab=readme-ov-file

On Fedora 42
- install rust/cargo via rustup
- install openssl-devel package
- run "cargo --disable-default-features" to avoid an issue with the riemann client
Note: if you need support for prometheus or json enable it again with '--features "json prometheus"'

I'm trying to integrate #powermonitoring into my #homeassistant instance. I'm building an #homessistantglow : https://glow-energy.io/docs/resources/schematics/
Now, my meter has two LEDS: one is called Ra and the other Rr. The meter's manual don't explain the difference between the two. Anyone knows which one should I use for the reading?

I have strategically placed energy monitoring that is now integrated into Home Assistant. Mostly it's to determine things I can run from the car in an emergency, and be able to monitor it.

Also, interestingly, it's prompted me to finally look at retiring/replacing an old home server that might be a tad power hungry.

Migrating is going to be a...process...
