I have one of these working for several years and they have now just released a magnetic water flow sensor as a beta trial that can be installed externally to some water meters. I have just installed this today and so far is looking good.
Would be great to pull the data out into my Hubitat!
Ha. I also installed the water flow sensor yesterday, and agree it seems to be reporting well although I don’t have any of the sensors and plugs reporting into Hubitat. (Beyond my skill set)
I think the mounting of the sensor is a bit suspect, due to the shape of the actual water meter (I’m in Sydney) and the fact that it could easily be knocked off or even stolen.
I might add some long cable ties.
Yes I agree with your comment on the mounting of the water sensor. might do the same with some cable ties, it’ll just be bit of a pain when needs recharging but better than someone taking it as it’s not exactly inconspicuous being white and mine is right next to a footpath.
With some digging around in their website, on their roadmap they apparently will or now have an API available, meaning it should be possible to access the data from Hubitat. I have sent them a request for further details on this and will share the outcome.
I use a USB Powerbank, that I place in my Power box, to recharge the Power Sensor so I was thinking to do the same for the Water Sensor. I'll probably place the powerbank in my mailbox which is just above the Water meter.
I even gave 'meter covers' a quick online search and found THESE but do I really need too ?? 
I'd be keen to test any Hubitat integration.
Got a link to the water sensor? Cant seem to find it
ta
The Water Sensor was offered to me, to buy, as part of their beta release program. Seems very solid and ‘release ready’.
IMHO The thing that needs sorting out is the mounting to the actual water meter.
Power-sensors installation / walk through, on all their sensors and plugs, is the best I’ve ever experienced.

Ahh..makes sense then why i couldnt find them - Thought i'd was going crazy when i couldnt see them
Hopefully they get released soon - Been looking for a water flow sensor
Cheers

Here' s the install link so you can get an idea of how this sensor attaches as it's completely external.
I've got the 'Elster' meter and the mounting is sketchy to say the least, because there's very little flat surface to mount too. That, and having my water meter right next to the footpath at the front of my house, has me wondering how long it is before the thing goes missing.
I'm going to mask off the bright, flashing, Blue LED's tomorrow !

Looks interesting
I'd have same concerns of it getting knocked off or smashed. My meter is right next to the footpath too!
I have an Enphase system using microinverters as I have shading issues. There is a community Enphase integration that I used successfully to develop a beta dashboard, using webCore.
However I have just had a Sigenergy battery and EV charger retrofitted, but Signenergy have yet to release an open API to accomplish the same. They do have an API for VPP providers, but it's not available to mere mortals!! 
Maybe soon?
The other option is a Shelley 3EM PRO power monitor, configured with each of the three channels monitoring grid, consumption and production, again using the existing comunity Shelley integration.
Having searched more agressively, I have discovered tha there is a Modbus TLS API available, and an integration has been developed for Home Assistant
Sigenergy Home Asistant Integration.
Further searching reveals that there is no Modbus support in Hubitat 
.
It seems that unless someone is adept at translating the HA yaml file(s) to Hubitat app and/or driver groovy code, the only immediate option is to commission an HA hub and use the Hubitat/HA integration - yet another hub! So a RESTFUL API from Sigenergy would provide the necessary data via Maker API or similar until there's a Hubitat integration.
Any other ideas?
Hi, did you manage to get this integrated into Hubitat?
Yes, but only by running an instance of HA on a Raspberry Pi and using the HA/Hubitat integration to retrieve the few data I needed
The HA integration is full-on, retrieving all the data the Sigenergy inverter offers and allowing control of the inverter’s parameters (that I consider dangerous). I also discovered that the default settings of the HA integration allows remote control of the Sigenergy operating mode, causing some consternation as I was seeing the mode changing without my intervention.
There are two separate issues that might be addressed to resolve this. First, a modbus integration for Hubitat (I believe there may be a hardware limitation?). Alternatively, Sigenergy could provide an HTTP REST API. I have been campaigning for this at every opportunity without success.
In the meantime it seems the HA solution is the only easy route for Hubitat!
I am in the process of obtaining new unit so let me also advocate for api access.
