I’ve been on the hunt for an affordable way to monitor my home’s energy consumption, and I stumbled upon this DTM125SR 3-phase energy meter on AliExpress. While it’s priced much lower than the SDM630 I’ve heard so much about, I’m curious if anyone out there has successfully integrated this device into their smart home setup.
The idea of tracking energy usage in real-time is incredibly appealing, especially for optimizing my home’s energy efficiency. I know the SDM630 works seamlessly with ESPhome, but tripling the price feels steep when I’m just starting out.
Has anyone experimented with the Modbus protocol on this meter? I’ve scoured the web for any documentation or user experiences, but it’s been a bit of a dead end. Any insights or tips would be invaluable!
For now, I’m keeping my hopes high and fingers crossed that this could be the budget-friendly solution I’ve been searching for. Let’s see if the community can shed some light on this!
