Updated app - feedback implemented
Thanks for taking on my earlier feedback about there being insufficient tariff options for setting up electricity plans. I’m more than happy to give this app 5 stars now. The system is easy to use and the app gives almost instantaneous usage and costing data. This allows us to make on-the-spot decisions about electricity usage to minimise our costs but maximise our lifestyle comfort/functionality.

Best Buy
I use the Powersensor to decide when to use certain appliances and make maximum use of the sun. Easy to install and with the long lasting charge from the batteries requires little maintenance.
No nuance for different rates
This app assumes that TOU tariffs only have 3 rates: peak, shoulder and off-peak. I have 4: peak, shoulder, off-peak and EV charging off-peak. Some plans offer 5 tariffs with a super off-peak in addition to the 4 I have. Please add functionality to set more tariff levels - without these extra levels I cannot set my costs up accurately, which limits the usefulness of this system.

Saving $
Great App! Does as advertised and saves us money with an iPad we have mounted to the wall displaying usage! Thankyou
Feature request: Dark mode? But app based not system based. As my iPad cannot run iOS that supports dark mode. Cheers

Stuck on "retrieving data"
Can be a bit buggy at times and the now data should refresh more frequently
Love the detail and information available
Bought this only a few days ago but the quality is obvious.
* Rechargeable sensors that last 12 months per charge
* elegant h/w design with simple led status made installation simply brilliant.
* Combination of low power bluetooth for sensor communications with wifi for simplified controller integration with home network is another clever design point.
* I love the clean and detailed display of information in the app. Being able to see actual inverter output plus grid feed in/out and house consumption both in detail and historical data is just such an improvement over the previous solutions available.
I have only one Wishlist item with this solution. I am pretty sure given it’s capabilities/design, it would be possible to support learning of household devices by power consumption profile. It would be more than perfect if I could tag devices in a learning mode when I turn them on and off, then have the app accumulate their power consumption after learning. Not foolproof but could be close enough to be very useful.
However regardless of that wish, this solution is streets ahead of others I have used/researched. Well done !

Doesn’t work
Since the update the app can’t retrieve any information. Was a great app before the update. Won’t be able to use it anymore which is a great shame because it is a great system. The link to the developer also doesn’t work.
