Currently looking at adding monitoring to a new sub-board , I was using IoTaWatt on my main power panel so far, but availability has been problematic lately.
So the Emporia on paper looks like a good alternative.
But if I understand correctly, the only way I can integrate this with my existing monitoring system (which is a mixture of self-written scripts and Home Assistant) ; I will have to continuously fetch data from the internet web site to get access to power/energy readings?
No way to query the device locally?
I don’t care if it logged things to the cloud, I just want to read it locally.
Isn’t that doable?
