Either all home electricity with data being gathered near/at meter, or targeting a specific point, like your home-lab consumption or particular devices?

I’m just looking for helpful tools to help visualize and monitor energy consumption.

Shelly Plugs, although I haven’t yet set up any local data gathering, just using their cloud stuff.

Several locations.

  • bunch of metering smart plugs flashed with Tasmota, feeding into Home Assistant (power at the wall)
  • UPS being polled by LibreNMS (difference in load Vs wall shows the UPS consumption)
  • metering PDU polled by LibreNMS shows the server load
  • PMBus PSUs in the servers report their own power consumption to the BMC

And after all this, I do… Nothing with this data.

:) But you have a system in place should you need it. And I say All Data can be useful if filtered correctly.

I have a esp32 gizmo connected to my meter. It has a built in web server displaying live data, and also pushing MQTT data to Home Assistant.
