Does your plug-in support Shelly 1PM model (i.e., power monitoring)? If not, do you have plans to add it?

Not yet, Shelly didn't send me the 1PM model, they may send it to me for testing, but after the IFA 2019 conference.
Sure I have plans to support all Shelly devices - it's just not feasible for me to pay for all of them, so I work with whatever they provide to me.

But if you do have Shelly 1PM and willing to do some testing for me - we can try. It's not much different to Shelly 1.
Most important is to find what device type string it returns when discovered by mDNS. Shelly 1 returns string "shelly1". If Shelly 1PM type string is different (I'm sure it is) - you will get an error in log "The device type is not supported:".
So if you give it a try and let me know what string type it returns - I can add Shelly 1PM device support.

Thanks for your response. My interest is presently casual -- I don't have any Shelly 1PM yet, but I'll probably buy a couple to play with. If/when I do, I'll let you know.

Shelly devices are very well designed, I love them. And I plan to support the whole range.

The beauty is - the API is very consistent, all devices share common code, so the only difference between Shelly 1 and Shelly 1PM is the type string and the power monitoring, which is already implemented (same as Shelly 2.5).

And I may add a device for setting power limit - so the relay will switch off when this limit is exceeded.

[alexbk66]

And they told me they are working on a dimmer device - so they will win the battle with Sonoff. Can't wait.

Can I help? I do have your Plugin and a Shelly1PM and of course it doesn't work. But I'm willing to do whatever test you might need if you guide me so you can add support for such switch



Thanks!

Sure, I can see the device type is "shelly1pm", that's most important bit. I will add the new type to my plugin today and put new version in Beta section.

It should then work, except may be for Power Monitor feature, but we can sort it out after.

Done deal!

Let me know if you need further info or testing
