Is anyone using HE data to graph power consumption? If so, what are you using and how do you set it up? I want to see what a device is using over time.
WOW! influx is way too expensive!
Ummmm, it’s free to run on your own local server

How are you exporting data?
I don’t see that on their website.
Then I missed something. I see their website, $249 a month. Higher if you want to use their cloudserver. Nowhere does it say free, other than 15 day free trial.
Please post a link where it can be used for free on your own local server.
Are you using separate HEMs for all those in HE?
Multiple HEM's, Iris/ST outlets, Aotec Smart Plugs and strips. Most are still on ST as HE really doesn't like smoothly reporting power from most of them.
I use "to the second" power reports for a lot of automations, so I still have a lot of cross integration with ST and HE.
Take a look here for instruction. Some of us already ported the smartapp over to HE but it's not 100% but functional for data logging. Just don't enable logging of hub properties and you'll be fine.

I supposed you were using something else because me with one HEM in HE means trouble...
Thanks for the info.
I would like this functionality, but unfortunately it looks too complicated for my experience. 
Not being able to see the "free to run on your own local server" plainly is by design. They want you to buy things so they can stay in business. But a single-node instance of influxdb can definitely be used for free.
The link that @ogiewon posted earlier is what you want. Click on the "v.1.6.3":
You'll see a bunch of different options for how you can run it depending on your platform.
What driver do you use for your HEM in HE?
I'm using this driver.

}I haven't seen this version of the driver yet. I tried it but don't get the updates as the config shows, or I'm reading it wrong. The value for watts is 30 seconds (vs 60 in comment) and 60 seconds for energy (vs 5 min in comments). Is a factory reset with the commented out line necessary to get it working right? I'm having well over a few minutes between watt updates.
I am not sure. How are you powering it? I am using USB power. I am getting a reading every minute.

USB as well. One of my HEM's reports roughly every minute even though it's set to 15 seconds, my primary just never is consistent. I've physically reset and re-added a number of times. I have about 4-5 paired to HE right now, very strong mesh in that area as well.
Here's what I see with the built in HEM driver:

And the version of the driver you use after a full reset, no updates since I captured this:
