Shelly Plug

Shelly Plugs are quite cheap but relatively accurate to measure power consumptions less than 2.5 kW.

Using Shellies Firmware

If you already have a sheyll device, you can locate it in your network.

MQTT can be enabled under "ADVANCED - DEVELOPER SETTINGS" -> "MQTT".

Then it will post a message on boot to your MQTT server:

{
  "wifi_sta": {
    "connected": true,
    "ssid": "Guest",
    "ip": "192.168.2.150",
    "rssi": -43
  },
  "cloud": {
    "enabled": false,
    "connected": false
  },

    "connected": true
  },

  },

  "ram_free": 39744,
  "fs_size": 233681,
  "fs_free": 166664,

}

You an use shelly script to update this status periodically.

A documentation on how to do this can be found on Shellie's documentation.

Flash Tasmota

There's an OpenSource project to flash Tasmota on Shelly Plug S': mg2x

Danger: This is still not working.

Locate your Shellie's IP adress (here: 192.168.2.150) and update it "over the air" with the Tasmota firmware:

http://192.168.2.150/ota?url=http://ota.tasmota.com/tasmota/shelly/mg2tasmota-ShellyPlugS.zip

Your shelly will return something like a JSON object that looks like that:

{
  "status": "updating",
  "has_update": false,
  "new_version": "20230109-114426/v1.12.2-g32055ee",
  "old_version": "20230109-114426/v1.12.2-g32055ee"
}

After a while your Shelly Plug S should be flashed with Tasmota firmware and create a new Wifi. Join that Wifi and [configure the device)(http://192.164.4.1/).

Note: This bricked my shelly device. I cannot reach it, anymore.

It should be configurable just like our plant monitor.
