Hi
I have a lot of devices that don’t have a build in power meter.
They are just ‘on’ or ‘off’ nothing else is known about them.
But I do know how much they consume (just read what is printed on the light (eg 15w), gives a good indication).
So I want to create entities that have exactly this amount of power for each light, but when the light is off, the entity shows 0, when it’s on, it shows 15w.
A good start I think would be a naming convention.
The light is called light.livingroom
So the sensor should probably called sensor.light_livingroom_power
Any ideas how to do this ?
