Any chance of compatibility with IoTaWatt - 14 Channel Electricity Monitor #1151

Hi @arendst, any chance of Sonoff-Tasmota supporting IoTaWatt?

IoTaWatt is an open-hardware 14 channel WiFi connected electric power monitor based on the ESP8266 IoT platform using MCP3208 12 bit ADCs to sample AC voltage and current with on-board SD card for local storage.

Since it's also based on ESP8266, any chance of it being supported, just like the Sonoff Pow?

Just looked at it and as Bob Lemaire already has done a great job I see no real reason to duplicate it. I also noticed that timing is a big issue so that makes integration even more difficult.

Nice project though.

what do you mean by timing is a big issue and how does it hinder integration? just asking for me to better understand the iotawatt issues you refering to?

arendst commented 7 years ago

Dive into the source of the IoTaWatt project and you'll see that every 50/60Hz all analog ports need to be scanned for updates.
