As I understand it, it is currently not possible to see the energy usage of my lights in the Energy tab. I do have the estimated power consumption configured for all of my Hue lights, so it’s a shame that this information isn’t being used. I realize these values are only estimates and not actual mea…

[IMG_2180] I can see the estimated powerconsumption of my Hue-lights in the hall in the energy tab. So I guess you want to see the total powerconsumption of all your lights. You could divide your home in two subzones: ‘lights’ and ‘other devices’. And have in both subzones the usual subzones: ‘li…

[image] Qx5: so it’s a shame that this information isn’t being used For me, it works just fine [Screenshot_20260702_105724_Homey] Are you sure that your lights have estimate configured correctly?

I believe the @Qx5 is refering to the Energy tab (at the bottom of the screen): [IMG_2739] Not the Energy tile (at the top of the screen): [IMG_2740] The Energy tab has an overview of top consumers. That overview indeed does not include devices without actual power measurement capabilities. S…

Oh okay, I only have a Pro 2019 so I don’t have that newer Energy tab

@smarthomesven and @Wim_Post thanks for your replies. I actually forgot this energy tile was available. It’s useful for seeing the live usage. But like @SunBeech mentioned I was indeed talking about the energy tab on the newer versions. Seeing the usage in their would enable to see totals for spec…

That’s correct. We currently don’t display estimated values in Homey Energy, as they can muddy the overview and make your energy data less reliable. Instead, Homey Energy only shows actual measured values from smart plugs or devices that report their own power consumption.

Hi @Doekse , Thanks for clarifying Athom’s point of view! Personally, I still think that an estimate is valuable information, especially for the Lights class, where the estimation is generally quite reliable. I think the Energy tab, with its configurable information widgets, would be an excellent pl…

Agree; I too like to see lights and other devices without energy measurements in the energy tab based on the estimated usage. Possibly with a toggle to include estimates or not. In my view, the estimates are better than completely missing data in that tab.

This is very cool! Must have been in the works already with how fast it appeared in the new firmware. I was a bit disappointed that it doesn’t combine lights that are grouped together (e.g. 6 hue spots in one ceiling fixture), but I just now realized I can just increase the approximated power usage…

The Top Consumers section in the Energy tab now also includes devices with an estimated energy consumption .

Apps with Approximated power usage could also have energy calculated automatically?
