HN discussionI've written some things about home monitoring/automation before (see: https://blog.kroy.io/2017/12/19/monitoring-home-power-consum... ) After Acurite shennanigans finally broke my setup, I wrote an MQTT ingest module for weewx, because I couldn't find one that worked. With some fairly boilerplate ESP32 code, it's trivial to hook up whatever sensor you want. I tried to keep it generic as possible. Cheers.
