The smart outlet I use for power monitoring and remote control
People ask me about my power monitoring setup all the time, so I thought I'd make a video about how I do it!
I wrote a blog post with all the information and my ApexCharts card code, so you can copy and paste it if you like: https://www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/202...
