POWR316D Missing a total cumul for the energy dashboard summary

[chriscatuk]

A nice detail in the energy dashboard is to show a per device consumption.

On 1st of the month, the monthly cumul of POWR316D is reset to zero and shows as a negative cost for the whole day equal to all of the past month cost.

Daily cumul is doing the same, daily.

Could we add a total cumul like HA requires for all energy tracking purpose?

we have

• sensor.sonoff_<id>_energy_month
• sensor.sonoff_<id>_energy_day

we would need

• sensor.sonoff_<id>_energy never reset to 0, ever

For Hass energy dashboard is better to use integration sensor https://github.com/AlexxIT/SonoffLAN?tab=readme-ov-file#sonoff-pow

Already done before opening the ticket. But you'd rather have all users go to configuration.yaml do this instead of adding it to the integration? Not an easy feat for non expert users.

Sonoff energy sensors are could data. With specific logic. With personal reset time. They not compatible with Hass energy dashboard.

Maybe them can be processed with some advanced logic. But I don't use them. And don't have time to make all researching.
