The Powerpal is a small Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) device that reads the flashes of the LED on a smart electricity meter and allows for a realtime view of power consumption in the home.
The Powerpal mobile app, when paired with a Powerpal device:
- displays current and historic power consumption
- includes challenges and advice
- forwards meter readings to the cloud; and
- can provide a signed download link for up to 90 days of usage history
It is currently not possible for a Powerpal end user to view their usage data outside of the app without manually creating an export link for each 90 day period, then loading the provided CSV data into a visualisation tool of their choice.
This repo was created to allow for regular retrieval of the latest uploaded readings so they can be loaded into a local DB for:
- long term storage
- visualization on a private home dashboard
- triggering home automation actions
