Hello,
New to forum…
I just ordered 3 house current monitors that are z-wave. I have a smartthings hub and only one z-wave switch now, to start.
I have solar power, and was wondering if there is an app that might integrate the current sensors, and show power usage? I would have to tell the app which sensor is either generating, or adjusted load(from the grid).
I plan to order infrared sensors for outside to turn on flood lights and such next.
Or, is this something I have to do myself? I have 20+ years as a C programmer for micros.
Take care,
Welcome! What’s the brand and model of the Z wave current sensors? I’m sure there will be multiple ways to do this, but someone might’ve already created one for that specific model.
Meanwhile, you might also want to take a look at the various logging projects, as many people use those to monitor energy use.
There’s a good round up thread here:
You can also take a look at the quick browse lists in the community – created wiki for logging smartapps and project reports.
