Do you know how many Watts your home is consuming right now? Discover real-time electricity consumption with My Electric Meter App. Simply choose the "Read LED Directly" option, align the app with the LED indicator on your electric smart meter, and press "Start." Within seconds, the app will display your current electricity consumption in Watts.
To utilize the app, enter the "Imp/kWh" value from your digital smart meter. Keep your device in "Read LED Directly" mode on your electric smart meter, while using another device in "Remote Reader" mode for convenient remote readings. Both devices should be connected to the same wifi network.
Now, you can easily integrate My Electric Meter App as a sensor in Home Assistant with the provided code:
