Incorrect consumption shown

[SheriffOfNotts]

I've configured the card (which is excellent btw), but one of the entities isn't showing the correct kWh?

The card config is as below and I've included images of the sensor and the [output..

type: custom:power-flow-card-plus
w_decimals: 0
kw_decimals: 2
min_flow_rate: 0.9
max_flow_rate: 6
watt_threshold: 0
clickable entities: true
entities:
  home:
    entity: sensor.smart_meter_electricity_power
    color_icon: true
  grid:

    entity:

      display_state: one_way

Is the other Individual Device showing the correct consumption?

What happens when you switch individual1 and individual2?

What is the unit of the card power?

Then there's your issue: kWh is not supported by this card. It's an energy unit.
Feel free to use my Energy Flow Card Plus for that use case :)

[SheriffOfNotts]

My mistake - it's kW

[flixlix]

What state is shown when you tap on the circle of the id3?

What happens when you set this entity to the solar consumption?

[SheriffOfNotts]

Nothing happens when I click on the circle and if I change it to solar it just changes colour and position - value doesn’t change..

You need to have this to be able to click the circles:

clickable_entities: true

I have a similar, but different issue?
My car is charging at 3kW but the card shows 3W

When I click the car:

[flixlix]

power-flow-card-plus.js.zip
Can you check and see if installing this file manually fixes your issue?

[flixlix]

The card seems to not have been getting the state of the individual devices from the correct location. Hopefully these changes fix your issue.

This should also fix the original issue

[ampersandru]

Didnt seem to fix it for me. Still showing W. I just drag the new .js file into /www/community/power-flow-card-plus and refresh the browser, correct?

[flixlix]

You probably also need to clear the cache (If on Safari, just do a Option+Command+e, on other browsers need to check).

To confirm you have the correct version, in your browser console, this should show up:

[flixlix]

Does this solve your issue?

[ampersandru]

Just checked and it's still showing in W. I have to manually add unit_of_measurement: kW to fix the units but the animation speed still is slow because it's thinking it's using little energy

Thanks

Does the browser console show this?

Overriding the HACS file didn't work for me either, so for the purposes of debugging this issue, please remove the HACS version of the card and install it manually using the instructions in the readme and the file I provided here

[ampersandru]

ok seems to work correctly now after manual install. Animation speed is still slow but honestly probably a good thing since its a small line to circle.

Can you ping this thread when the HACS version is updated so I can move back to that when it is?

Thanks for the help!

[flixlix]

I'm glad I was able to help! I will keep you updated, it shouldn't take long to be released honestly 😊

[flixlix]

Released the new version! Version 0.1.3 has fixed this bug 🥳
@ampersandru you can now install the HACS version again 😅
Thank you for your patience!

[SheriffOfNotts]

Sorry for the delay in replying. I've updated via HACS, but the ID.3 entity still isn't showing the correct value? When I click on it it does and you can see the correct history etc..

[flixlix]

Same question as before:

To confirm you have the correct version, in your browser console, this should show up:

Which version appears here?

[SheriffOfNotts]

It's showing v0.1.3..

[flixlix]

Are there any other errors showing?
Does this only happen with this one entity?

[SheriffOfNotts]

It just happens with this one entity - all other values are as expected..

[SheriffOfNotts]

Strangely, there is no flow showing from the grid to home?

[flixlix]

This is likely another issue, that will be fixed in 0.1.4. For now use

use_new_flow_rate_model: true

[flixlix]

It just happens with this one entity - all other values are as expected..

That is very weird. Do you have any other entities with the same unit of measurement that you can test?

[Coastersteve]

I have exactly the same issue with my home value. The graphic shows the wrong value but if I tap it I can see its picking up the correct value. Glad it's not just me!

[Uhae]

I have the same issue. Any insights on this? Is this relaxed to #309?
Great Card btw!

I see the original poster messed up power with energy (kW vs kWh) but I have a question really about mislabeling happening to energy.
I have entity that calculates daily energy amount on each of my 16 CT's.
On the screenshot you can see the one reading energy going to car charger. It calculates things in watthours, not kilowatthours.
This nice card allowed me to add this as secondary information and I use it to see how much energy went into car in night.
But it's a little annoying that it shows wrong unit. Why it does that? If I go manually change it to "kWh" then it stops doing the conversion and shows 7800.
You can see same issue above the grid icon, there i have total daily ENERGY entity, it's also in Wh, but card converts it into kW instead of kWh.

my power flow card plus verision is 0.1.8.1
