I purchased the Amazon cheapo Minoston Energy Metering Z Wave Outdoor Outlet so I could control and inspect the kwh of my Clark Griswald’esque lights.
First - It added super easy. Picked it up as a Zwave Device. Just showed on / off
Next - Tried switching things around in IDE and got some metering functions as a Zwave Metering Device but wasn’t very responsive.
I now decided to actually read the box and it says it may require a custom device handler for SmartThings. Well, here’s the start of the major problem. No more DHs right?
Email their support, they FINALLY get back and give me a link to an edge drive channel. Below is the link to the edge driver but forum hyperlinks as this:
SmartThings. Add a little smartness to your things..
I follow it and… the only somewhat applicable driver is for a switch. I delete the device and re add it so it can pick up the Edge driver. Guess what? Back to the very beginning with just On / Off functionality… but now it’s worse since it’s CLOUD.
Does anyone have suggestions or linking to a better edge driver applicable for this device? I’ve seen Minoston brought up before but not for this model.
Thanks all.
