@chaeplin what software and hardware are you using to monitor current consumption, excellent graphs produced ?

Hardware :
1) ucurrent gold + pro mini + ads1115 + nrf24l01p

- https://github.com/chaeplin/esp8266_and ... ds1115.ino

2) gateway
- esp-12 + nrf24l01
https://github.com/chaeplin/esp8266_and ... emperature
- report : udp protocol to influxdb
https://github.com/chaeplin/esp8266_and ... #L763-L785

Software
1) time series db / influxdb

#46281 @chaeplin. Thanks for all those links but I think the main question was :

what software and hardware are you using to monitor current consumption


In other words, do you use one ESP to measure consumption of another ESP and broadcast results to the DB ? :ugeek:

Ucurrent gold is used to measure. Output volatge of ucurrent gold is sampled by ADS1115 with pro mini.
(I have to use pro mini and nrf24l01p as ucurrent gold is battery powered)
