Eve Energy Usage History

[tmur11]

It appears this previous fix for energy consumption is no longer functioning in the newer wemo plugin.

Hi @tmur11 is this still an issue?

[tmur11]

Hey @bwp91 yes still appears to be a problem and just checked I am running v4.6.9 of the plugin although I do see in the log when I start homebridge. I will see if I can't not resolve that first.

The plugin "homebridge-wemo" requires Node.js version of ^14.20.1 || ^16.18.0 || ^18.11.0 which does not satisfy the current Node.js version of v16.13.2. You may need to upgrade your installation of Node.js - see https://homebridge.io/w/JTKEF

version 6 of the plugin now exists, also you can ignore the messages about the node version (although this can be fixed by updating to the latest node version)

[tmur11]

Thanks! I must have at some point manually selected that version as the homebridge UI wasn't telling me their was an update. I just spun up a new homebridge instance on docker and restored my old config. This fixed my node js version errors but still no energy consumption values in eve. Also interestingly I noticed the wemo switches on/off history has them historical always on when they have not been.

[bwp91]

which model is this for? and have you applied any extra settings to this via the plugin config? for example showing the device as a different accessory type?

[tmur11]

Wemo motion detector is working correctly however.

Lights are not

[bwp91]

which wemo model are your basement lights?

[tmur11]

Its a OG Switch (Model#: F7C030) I believe.

No I don't think so

{ "name": "Wemo", "mode": "auto", "platform": "Wemo" },

[tmur11]

You were correct, I did have the 'Basement Workbench' display as set to 'light' type instead of 'outlet' in the home app. After changing made no difference in the eve app for energy history. I can however see the energy usage in the homebridge logs peridoically.

[bwp91]

Could you try updating to the beta version of the plugin 6.0.1-beta.0 to see if this has made any improvement?

[bwp91]

... to basement lights device? i mean the on/off status history

[tmur11]

okay.. after further testing and a bite to eat I can confidently say none of the Display As settings in home app made a difference with the issues for power usage/consumption (Wemo Insight;Basement Workbench Light), and power on/off history (Wemo Wall Switch:Basement Lights)
