Hello, i like to know which p1 meter device to read out electric and gas, is compatibel and can be used with homey?

I don’t know if energyflip will work with homey, also i have seen plugwise but there where limited options with it.

I have a Plugwise P1 v1 and no reason to replace it.

It feeds all my insights properly. It is stable and it has a configurable pollng interval which is key for me, as I have a splitter on the P1 port with a Plugwise P1 and a smart EV charger attached.

Setting a proper polling rate (not too fast) for the P1 is what makes my Smart EV charger work properly.

Happy with it.

Yes, as in every ~5 seconds as is also the update frequency when you look at the Plugwise P1 website

I configured 20 or 30 seconds, as it was interfering with my Smart EV charger. Now everything works flawless for me.

And know that besides the ‘official’ Plugwise app there is a very well supported community app for the Smile P1: [[APP][PRO] Plugwise Smile P1 - Dutch and Belgian Smart Meter Reader](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-plugwise-smile-p1-dutch-and-belgian-smart-meter-reader/8012)
