Measure power, run projects on the sun and ride out outages.

Find the appliances that cost you the most with certified energy-monitoring plugs and Home Assistant's Energy dashboard.

Track every kWh your electric car charges at home and what it costs per month — no wiring, just official integrations.

Log voltage, current and watts of any low-voltage project to find out exactly how long your battery will last.

Keep your Pi server running through short outages and shut it down cleanly before the battery runs out.

Teach Home Assistant your utility's time-of-use hours and let it switch smart plugs on only during cheap periods.

Size a panel, charge controller and LiFePO4 battery to keep a Pi project running 24/7 with no outlet.

Four light sensors and two servos keep a small solar panel pointed at the Sun all day — then measure how much extra energy you gain.

Count every amp-hour in and out of a small LiFePO4 battery and show a real percentage instead of guessing from voltage.

Measure wind with a cup anemometer and the power from a small hobby turbine side by side, and find out if wind makes sense where you live.
