I would also be very interested in support for the P1 and D0 versions of the Zendure smart meter so that they can be integrated with the Energy Dashboard. This would provide a strong solution for the German market, as these meters use a widely adopted optical standard.
So far, I have found that Tibber and IOmeter are compatible. However, when using a Zendure energy storage system in a smart setup, the D0 interface becomes necessary.
The HomeWizard P1 appears to be supported both by Zendure and by the Homey Energy Dashboard, which could make it a suitable solution for you. However, I cannot use it due to the lack of a P1 port in Germany. I need something based on infrared like the D0.
To be clear, the Homey Energy Dashboard isn’t the problem; the problem is that there isn’t a corresponding Homey app for the everHome EcoTracker IR.
I also use the everHome EcoTracker IR with my Zendure energy storage system, so I’ve currently integrated it into Homey via Home Assistant and then through the Homey Home Assistant Community app.
But of course, I’d prefer to have everything integrated directly into Homey.
Thanks for submitting this idea. I agree that the lack of an official everHome app is a key issue, and the Ecotracker appears to be a solid IR smart meter worth supporting.
I fully support this proposal, especially since the Ecotracker is compatible not only with Zendure but also with EcoFlow. An official everHome app with integration into the Homey Energy Dashboard would be a great addition. I would also appreciate support for the Zendure D0.
When using the EcotTracker IR with a local connection and with changing power, the values are updated extremely quickly, ca. < 1 up to 2 sec. Much faster than going through Home Assistant.
Afaik, you need to create a virtual device with the Device Capabilities app and including the meter_gas capability. With an additional flow you need to write the via MQTT incoming values into that device.
