Hi everybody. I tried to read the whole thread, but got tired of it. :wink: I want to use an AVD as the primary power meter for my home. Right now I have an MQTT Hub device showing my values for power (W) and energy (kWh). But the Homey Energy tab says, that my device would only show actual powe…

Hi again, after fiddling around a while and checking which capabilities are present in another device, I tried the following settings inside my MQTT Hub device successfully: [IMG_8404] [IMG_8403]

I see now. I got confused with the thread. My fault. :sweat_smile:

BORUIDAPLS Tuya Zigbee Smart Socket - Corrected Metering I have four of cheap smart metering sockets that work as expected, except the power consumption values are reported in W/h. Disclaimer here: This is my assumption based on rough calculations I made base on the device insights. Link to shop D…

Thank you for the tipp, but this doesn’t solve the issue. Because there is no dedicated app for the socket the values are in the wrong unit. Power by the Hour doesn’t allow me to correct anything here… [CleanShot 2025-04-22 at 12.20.56@2x]

I have flows to move sunshade up, down and stop (using a broadlink rm4 pro incl homey app for it). How can I start these flows with the buttons of this app? I can only select devices. Selecting the rm4 pro as the device doenst give me the necessary options and I dont want to create even more VDs by …

The Broadlink device on Homey has no buttons if I’m right, it only provides for flow cards to send a signal (you once recorded); So you’ll have to create flows which get triggered by a button of your AVD, and sends a Broadlink signal. [1000047143] AVD [1000047145] AVD settings: [1000047148] …

You’ll need a Power by the Hour app’s “power summariser” device. Along with values in kWh, It calculates many nice figures (no flows needed):
