I am once again here asking for a product, fully expecting with yet another “you probably won’t find a Canadian alternative for this”. I was surprised with the smartwatch + fitness tracker options last time, so I think this might be worthwhile too.

Does anyone know of an energy monitoring plug? Too many of these are made in China by Chinese and American companies, so I’m hoping to find alternatives here.

Ideally, I’d also like to hook it up with Home Assistant, and either via Zigbee or Matter. If it’s WiFi-only, that’s fine too, but preferably not, cause I don’t want to add more WiFi devices on my network, if possible.

    Yw! Also IKEA returns are super chill anyway.

    They have a ton of stuff, I wish they had smart dimmer switches, the kind you put in your wall. Lmk if you know of one that’s ZigBee compatible :)

      Unfortunately I don’t :/ I’m renting a place after all, so I’ve never looked into in-wall switches or outlets. But hope you find one there!
