Option to exclude Always On from Usage and/or Now

Hi @daniel2 ,
I agree that an option to turn off home-level Always On and zero it out for the purposes of the bubbles and calculation of the Other bubble would be useful for experienced users. It’s a great top down view and wake-up call for new users, but becomes a distraction for users who:

  • Have really pared back on their Other via Sense AI plus plenty of device-level power monitoring (smart plugs, Hue, Wiser stuff, HA with Kasa emulation). With that level of direct monitoring, the double counting of Always On from both measurements and the home-level calculation, coupled with the smaller size of Other, can easily lead to a relatively inaccurate and often negative Other.
  • Have device usage patterns that confound the home level Always On calculation. @obscuredtrip is one of several users I have encountered that have experienced this issue in spades. The last bullet in my post here gives some of the scenarios where the home level Always On is guaranteed to be incorrect.
