Re: Cheap Chinese Power Meter made wireless

I made an adaptation to my 3rd powermeter.
The used wemos D1 mini has several unused ports, so I added a transistor + relay to switch the output power.
Now I can switch on or off the output power by Node-Red.

Re: Cheap Chinese Power Meter made wireless

In the software of Karl Hagström I see the line: if ((U > 195) && (U < 253) && (P >= 0) && (P < 4000)) // ignore spurious readings with voltage or power out of normal range { I adapted this line a little, in the Netherlands the voltage can be 230volt -15% +10% Perhaps this can help you.

Re: Cheap Chinese Power Meter made wireless

I ordered three powermeters and all three have a different printed circuit board. The 1st and the 3rd with spi interface, the 2nd with serial interface.
For the 3rd powermeter I made a pcb for the wemos and power supply, it just fitted in height.

Re: Cheap Chinese Power Meter made wireless

I was just interested in volt, watt an frequency. kWh will be calculated by the Node-Red system.
With the finishing of the software I stopped investigating the power meter.
But I like to hear from you if there are more possibilities with the power meter.

Re: Cheap Chinese Power Meter made wireless

You're welcome.
As I said, I am not working with domoticz, but with Node-Red.
The calculation from watt + time to kWh is done in a Node-Red function. I think in Node-Red the time is quit accurate, in wemos not.

Re: Cheap Chinese Power Meter made wireless

Well, after a couple of days working on this second power meter, I have it working. The first thing I did, was to find out which chip was used. With the help from circuitsonline https://www.circuitsonline.net/forum/view/message/1914040#1914040 it turned out that it was a V9261F chip from Vango ...

Re: Cheap Chinese Power Meter made wireless

I ordered a second power meter, because I wanted to do some more tests. I received the same as littlewouter. It looks like that there is a redesign of the pcb of the power meter. The pcb is much more simple. But for me it is unclear which chip is used. Tomorrow I get a separation transformer and ...

Re: Cheap Chinese Power Meter made wireless

Unfortunately I am not familiar with the C compiler for the software, so I could not use the software from Sweetpants, sorry for that. Normally I work with Arduino ide and the last couple of month I use the wemos D1 mini. I wanted this wemos D1 mini build in in the cheap Chinese power meter and ...

Re: Cheap Chinese Power Meter made wireless

I also want to make this power meter wireless.
The ESP8266 version that I want to use is the Wemos D1 mini.
Hope I also can get the code.
I will send a pm to Sweetpants (edit: not succeeded)
