What I'd really like to replace the #smappee with is something that would nicely integrate with the #solar inverters. Unfortunately, the inverters are ~250 feet away from the import/export meter, and about the same from the house's load center. I do have an #RS485 energy monitor on order which is allegedly compatible with the inverters - I'm just not sure how best to connect the two. I've been trying to research if there's a way to wirelessly bridge rs485 with #wifi or #lora but no luck yet.

My #smappee #energy #monitor (circa 2014/2015) recently died. It kept falling off wifi, and now I can't get it to broadcast its internal hotspot at all even when the blinking lights say it should be in pairing mode.

Cracked it open, can't see anything obviously burnt or otherwise, so I'll probably send it off to recycling and look into a more modern solution. Maybe #esphome and that six-channel expandable monitor to log individual circuits?

Have some #circuitboard photos. Looks ARM based?
