Presence Sensor based on pings

I’m a new convert from Vera to SmartThings. With Vera, I used a ping sensor to detect when my TVs are on and the presence of my phones. The SmartThings app on my phone has replaced the phone presence, but I haven’t found a good solution to detect when my TVs are on. I have searched the forums, and I haven’t seen mention of a ping presence sensor, but I figured I would ask to see if anyone knows of one that already exists? I know I could use a power meter outlet, but I’d rather not have to buy an additional piece of hardware just to detect when my TV is on. Thanks!

Nifty, I haven’t yet done it because I switched to ST presence tags. But I am planning to use it so that if my wife and I leave together it can set actions based on both of our phones being gone.
