Firstly, you have to fix the energy monitoring for the matter plugs, it’s just not accurate, numbers for daily and monthly usage are not accurate at all :slight_smile:

I reported it a long time ago.

Country: Romania :romania:

I tried the Electricity Price Trend feature today and I like the direction you’re going with this. The hourly trends seem to match quite well with how electricity prices usually behave here in Romania, especially the peak vs off-peak periods I see from my provider.

It was easy enough to enable once I found it, and the chart itself is clean and readable. Maybe adding clearer “low / medium / high cost” hints directly on the timeline would make it even quicker to understand at a glance.

What I’d really love to see next is automation support — for example starting heavy appliances or EV charging automatically when prices are low. Solar and battery integration would also be amazing in the future.

Overall, this feels like a useful and well-thought feature, and I’m curious to see how it evolves.

Thank you for the feedback!We would like to understand whether the electricity price trend forecast for your country(Germany) is accurate. This feature helps with planning electricity usage for the next day, but it does not currently provide hourly price details. :grinning:

Hi Sugar, I’m really glad to hear back from you. I’d be happy to help optimize this experience for you. May I ask which Aqara device you’re using?
At the moment, we don’t have any Matter smart plug products available on the market yet.


May we confirm whether you are using the Tapo 110PM connected to Aqara Home via Matter? Please note that this product is not manufactured by our company. The data shown in the Aqara Home app is read directly from the connected device itself. Based on this, the issue is more likely related to the Tapo 110PM rather than our device.

We would also like to share that we will soon be launching the Power Plug H2 EU and Power Plug H2 UK, which are expected to provide more accurate power measurement. You are very welcome to try them once they become available.

Hello, yes it is tapo p110m. It’s issue with aqara m100 matter controller, it’s working fine for example with home assistant.

“We would also like to share that we will soon be launching the Power Plug H2 EU and Power Plug H2 UK, which are expected to provide more accurate power measurement. You are very welcome to try them once they become available.”

I will check when it will be available :slight_smile:

Edit: As matter controller it should be fixed and you can use it with your new functionality, I would never buy that hub only for aqara devices

working fine with M3 and showing reliable consumption data
