Hi @Jari_Peuhkurinen I created a sample flow based on an energy socket. Text is semi in :netherlands: so hopefully it’s all clear. [Schermafbeelding 2024-12-01 om 22.07.57] Devices like Washing machine or dryer are a bit more difficult (but not impossible), since you need to check the minimal a…

Thank you very much. Had to use google translate, but work now! :slight_smile:

For this to work with smart plug, you need to have plug that offers required values. For example, with Aqara plugs flow does not work, but with HomeWizard plug it works. Or I am doing something wrong :smiley:

Aqara plug also support power measuring, so that will work as well. The action cards need 2 values kWh tariff & energy (meter value of smart plug or any other device that keeps kWh values) Can you show me an screenshot maybe on what error you are facing?

This is the flow I used with Aqara. You can see the values it gives when finished. Only duration is correct. Costs and usage don’t match. When I used this flow with HomeWizard plug it worked perfectly. [Näyttökuva_6-12-2024_204757_my.homey.app] [Näyttökuva_6-12-2024_20490_my.homey.app]

At least the used power was displayed correctly when I monitored the power usage while machine was on. Also the energy was displayed in insights after machine has finished, but it didn’t match the information Power price app gave. But yes, I think it has something to do with aqara since other plu…

Do you mean that the power usage is displayed correctly in the Power Price device during runtime? Or the aqara power socket? Did you check if the correct energy variable is used in all flow cards? I noticed that clicking in Homey web ui sometimes select the wrong variable. Then it could be that th…

Aqara shows energy and power usage in insights correctly during the washing cycle. [Näyttökuva_7-12-2024_101143_my.homey.app] There are only two variable that Aqara offers. I tried with both, didn’t change the result. [Näyttökuva_7-12-2024_101219_my.homey.app] The final variables are from P1 m…

Looking at this data, it seems that the socket is measuring data as expected. Looking in detail it only measures 0.1 or 0.25 kWh of usage during sessions. For PowerPrice you need to configure the energy variable (kWh meter). This will calculate usage from start to finish. power variable is measuri…

I see what u mean, looking at my own devices I see one of the aqara plugs isn’t updating its energy value. This seems an issue with the aqara device or app. Maybe it’s a known issue: [APP] Aqara & Xiaomi Smart Home - Simplify your life with a smarter home
