Possibility to override energy measurment with energy sensor #526

As I have energy meters on all my radiators and HVACs I would live to have the possibility to override the internal energy measurment with a sensor value.

Hello @d96moe ,

If you already have energy measurment why to you need to use this "approximative" and fake energy measurement from VTherm ?

This seems totally useless and will complexify the configuration with a very low added value.

Don't hesitate to comment if needed, I will close this request

Ah, I think I missunderstand your power shedding algorithm. I thought you used the momentary consumption of your thermostats.

No, it use the max power of the device
