I seem to have a lot of devices which support an ‘Energy’ insight. This is a lifetime number, which for my dryer was a value that changed from 237kWh to 254kWh this week.
I would love to be able to put this into graphs, showing a number for each day, instead of an ever upward travelling line.
I saw the Power by the hour app, which has the same functionality, but this means that I need to have loads of those devices in my system. It would be cool if this could be part of the already existing device and available through the regular insights.
Hi @sorted.bits ,
If you don’t want to use Power By The Hour ‘devices’ you can do it on your own, but you need two variables for each power meter / machine When…It is 23:59 Then… Calculate MyWashingMachineEnergyPerDay as {{ (WashingMachine)Energy - MyLastWashingMachineEnery }} Set MyLastWashingMachineEnergy To (WashingMachine)Energy with 3 seconds delay
You just need one simple or advances flow. I am not sure, if the delay is needed. I use it to ensure that the MyLastXxxEnergy variable is set after the calculation. As I understood it is not guaranteed, even if looks to be later in the flow.
Here I used very long names for better reading. You may use abbreviations. And my variables start with My in order to see in Flows that it is a variable and not the tag of a device or similar (WashingMachine)Energy means the energy tag of the powermeter connected to your washing machine.
