I have a question. I have two sets of solar panels, so two growatt/zonnepanelen devices in Homey. I can a power by the hour device for both of them individually, but is it possible as well to add them together in a single PBTH device? ---

Sorry If this question is allready asked. But I couldn’t find it in the 1421 🙄posts. If I look at my m3 Gas I see this (2-3-2023) 88,31 m3 (m3 vorige maand) 77,81 m3 (m3 deze maand) I presume that 77 m3 this is the estimation of this months m3 gas. Or isn’t it? I always thought it is the gas consumed untill today ---

As far as I know that is the sum of usage this month until now. It has nothing to do with predicting anything ---

The forum removed the formatting. For option 1 you need this Homey app: \ For option 2 add a PBTH summarizer, and select the `Virtual via flow` device. ---

Hi @Gruijter, This morning i noticed the value of ‘kWh deze dag’ to be incorrect. It was 5.38 which was the value of yesterday’. After restarting the app, it was corrected to the right value. Looking in Insights i noticed the value to be incorrect since 5:30 this morning ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/e/3/e3465822e148adbc4e84f39223eeadfc91c5287a.jpeg) At that time my homey is restarted automatically. I do that once a week. Do you have any clue on how to prevent thisfrom happening? Regards ---

Have been trying this app to summarise daily energy transfer to a myEnergie Eddi device, it seemed to work perfectly yesterday but today has done what some recent posters have found, didn’t reset to 0kWh. When adding a PBTH device and it finds Eddi, there doesn’t seem to be a way to select which if Eddi’s measures are used ---

> [@Philip\_Montgomery](#): > > select which if Eddi’s measures PBTH uses meter\_power by default. For a small number of apps that do not have meter\_power I added reading some special capabilities. I found the source code for Eddi. It does have a meter\_power capability (kWh), so that is used by PBTH. I dont know what Eddi uses meter\_power for. Can you clarify (e.g. with screenshots of the meter names/values, and a screenshot of Insights of the last 24hrs)? I do see in the source code that the Eddi app has a button to reset the kWh. When using that button PBTH will be lost for sure. Have you reset something in the Eddi app maybe? ``` "meter_power", ``` ---
