Hey everyone, I’m diving into the world of smart home automation and have been exploring power monitoring solutions. I’m currently using a smart plug to monitor the power usage of my furnace condensate pump. My setup involves a smart life scene where I get a notification when the plug detects over 200mA of current. However, I’m looking to migrate away from Smart Life as their reliability has been inconsistent.
I’ve tried TP-Link and SwitchBot plugs, but neither offers the power monitoring features I need within the SmartThings ecosystem. Has anyone found a reliable power monitoring plug that integrates well with SmartThings and allows for automation routines? I’m particularly interested in knowing if there are any workarounds or alternative devices that can meet my needs.
If anyone has experience with similar setups or knows of a plug that fits these criteria, I’d love to hear your insights! Let’s brainstorm together on how to achieve this seamless integration.
