Exploring Shelly Pro 3EM: Power Monitoring Insights

Hey everyone, I’ve been diving into the world of smart home automation recently, and I thought I’d share my experiences with the Shelly Pro 3EM. It’s been a fantastic addition to my setup, but I wanted to explore one specific feature that’s been on my mind: power monitoring.

I installed the Shelly Pro 3EM to keep track of my energy consumption, and so far, it’s been impressive. However, I noticed that the app only shows the current power usage and not the maximum power consumption. This got me curious—how can I track the peak usage over time? After a bit of research, I found that the Shelly app doesn’t have a built-in feature for this, but there’s a workaround!

I discovered that by using third-party integrations like Home Assistant, I can pull the power data from the Shelly device and create custom graphs or dashboards to visualize the maximum power usage. This has been incredibly helpful for understanding my energy habits and optimizing my usage.

I’d love to hear from others who are using the Shelly Pro 3EM or similar devices. How do you track and analyze your power consumption? Any tips or tricks would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers,
