People ask me about my power monitoring setup all the time, so I thought I’d make a video about how I do it!
I wrote a blog post with all the information and my ApexCharts card code, so you can copy and paste it if you like:

Are there any that are weatherproof for outside outlets?
how have these fared over time? i find mine have started to fail when connected to inductive loads aka any of my servers’ larger power supplies.
Hey Jeff. Great video. Can I DM you offline? I have some questions? Ty sir- Mark
How did you get the icons of the Utility monitor this big? I’d couldn’t get it to be this big.
