Emporia Smart Plugs not available in notifications?

[stevenc88]

I have a few Emporia Smart Plugs in my system, and I want to use one of them for a notification of use above a certain amount. I can do tha notification just fine for one of the hard-wired Vue circuits. But I don’t see any of the plugs shown in the selection.

Is this a “feature” or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks.

Totally agree, as posted in another older thread, there are some very important use cases for this:

Fridge/deep freeze does not turn on for x hours (smart switch off, cable unplugged, compressor failure, etc)
Fridge/deep freeze is on for more than x hours (door left open, etc)

Yes!  Extremely surprised And disappointed when I couldn’t find the smart plugs for notifications!   Also, if a plug is listed under a circuit, the App seems to subtract the plugs data from the circuit, so would monitoring the circuit even work?  This should be an easy fix, does Emporia monitor their forum?

Hello @stevenc88 As the other forum members have mentioned we do not support alerts on our SMART plugs.   We do have this our roadmap for a future software enhancement.   At this time we do not have a expected release date.
