Have anyone tried Deltaco and found a way to connect their power meters to Homey?
Released only a couple of months ago they look very promising.
A test (unfortunately in Norwegian) praises the products. The article basically says “The smart plugs have got a new king. Deltaco crushes its competitors for both ease of use and price”:
I am looking for a energy monitor, not necessarily turning the product on and off, and therefore WiFi could be good enough for this
@Gakk: If you dont mind wifi plugs i would recommend these:
They are smaller, cheaper and also allow 16A instead of 10. I got 6 of them now and im super happy.
Comparing to my other 4 plugs from innr (zigbee) and 2 Z-wave Neo Coolcam plugs they works just as good so far. been using them since november.
Works with Tuya and also works with homey trough the app there
I totally agree, @Dijker. Usually I would buy stuff that already has verified Homey support. The reason for my request was since the product looked new and promising
Thanks for info about Tuya rebranding. I might give that a try.
I might look into Neo, @Odechr, but preferably from another supplier than AliExpress
I have bought battery operated sensors from AliExpress, but I’ve poor experience with electronics connected to the power grid. I’d rather buy them locally.
The plugs I am buying this time is only for power monitoring, and would never be used to toggle power on and off (eg. freezer, dishwasher etc.). Therefore I think WiFi is good enough, as it is not critical if I loose network.
Do so, they are realiable. Deltaco is made in china as well, and most likely the same producer as all the other plugs. Just different design. So buying them local or from Ali doesnt make much difference.
Interested in some plugs with power meter as well, and Delteco still looks smaller and is cheeper then most options out there. They are also available everywhere in Norway.
How did you manage that? I’m not sure how to set up the Tuya Cloud-app within Homey Pro to be able to use it.
Have a few Deltaco Smart Plugs (both with annd without power measurements) and lamps but also some Ikea Trådfri stuff that I want to connect to the Homey Pro.
Receiving an error message?
The official Tuya app for Homey is currently broken for new users due to Tuya revoking API access. You will receive an error saying, “No matching app user information.” We are working with Tuya to fix this issue.
