@donkfather Hi, just curious 🙂 I noticed there is also another app for Tapo now. Are you still developing this one??

Hi, I am new to Homey (Pro). So I am learning…

I have a number of TAPO P110 smart plugs and have been using the TAPO app for Android. To get the power consumption of my heat pump I now and then export the data using the Android app.

First of all I do not find power data at all in the Homey environment. I only see some flow nodes like “when power changes” or “when power becomes larger than”.

Do I overlook something? Is it possible to access / export power consumption and current data with an existing Homey app?

I think that other app uses the cloud to control the devices, I am not sure. This app uses local LAN, so no cloud integration

Unfortunately that is because it is not yet supported in this app.

using MQTT following this [GitHub - mihai-dinculescu/tapo: Unofficial Tapo API Client. Works with TP-Link Tapo smart devices. Tested with light bulbs (L510, L520, L530, L610, L630), light strips (L900, L920, L930), plugs (P100, P105, P110, P115, P300), hubs (H100), switches (S200B) and sensors (KE100, T100, T110, T300, T310, T315).](https://github.com/mihai-dinculescu/tapo) worked for me.  
You need to create a device with “MQTT Hub”.  
instead of using Homey Tapo app.

Do you have an example of using the MQTT Hub with the Tapo API client?

First, you have to add your tapo device to Homey (link your tapo account with homey).  
then, I’m using a raspberry to execute Python code described in GitHub link (or any terminal able to execute python and conencted to your network).  
then, once the raspberry is able to request datas, you have to send them to mqtt server (homey in my case). You have to declare the topic you want to use  
then, create a MQTT Device and configure it to subscribe to the associated topic

that’s all
