Power from heating device

[JochenV1976]

Hello.

I have added (under charging&heating) a boiler to my configuration.
The heater is configured as a Shelly 1. In reality, It is a Shelly Pro 3, 3th channel.
The Energy meter is a Shelly 3 EM-63T/W Gen 3.

As you can see on the screenshot, the power used by the boiler is 1.2kW, but the message Ready to heat is still on the screen. I suppose this is because this reading uses the standby power of the Shelly 1 (optional)?

If this is the case, maybe it is an idea to put an option "Use metering device"?

Standbypower is only working, if the charger do have an internal meter.
With external meter, you must set StandbyPower to -1

Nice to know!
But I found another way; I used Home Assistant as source.
I could choose the HA switch, and also a HA sensor (helper) as power.

@VolkerK62 why is the min+pv mode still visible? Shouldnt it be hidden if you have a switch-device?
