Groovy/Hubitat "Power Meter" Capability Question

[abuttino]

If anyone wants to help put these in parent/child (maybe help me understand how this is done as well...)

Here are the finished "child" drivers that have all the Z-wave commands ready.

Thanks for helping!

Dan,
Thanks for the pointer to the Driver. I installed it, and realized I dare not 'improve it' via 'capability "Power Meter" ' because I don't have any vintage of HEM.

I did read @rlithgow1 message and thought "I wonder if I can add yet another type of option to Better Laundry Monitor (BLM) and that seemed an interesting challenge.

BLM Challenge result

You can choose the Arbitrary Sensor option and then:

then pick the Arbitrary Attribute from the selected device.

then pick the Type to mimic.

I did place the BLM Child code where it could be picked up as 'Beta' but as it stands this minute, it's not a solution to @abuttino problem. They are not using BLM and even if.. the HEM driver uses a Switch attribute (on/off) vs a Contact attribute (open/closed) that BLM supports.

Just thought of something that would be temporary..

Two virtual power meter devices and use webcore to update them.

Then use them in Grafana.

I'll give that a shot now.
