I just read the latest newsletter about the Belkin Wemo Insight and TP-Link Kasa HS110. The newsletter says devices will be detected in minutes. I’m guessing that doesn’t mean the entire power signature was detected such that you could move the smart plug around from device to device to to train the…

Look at this thread. [image] What's new in v23 and Web App v5.5: Smarts Plugs and Themes App Release Notes We are very excited to announce two major updates to the mobile and Web apps: Themes and Smart Plugs. Themes Themes give you the ability to customize the look and f…

Congratulations. Your results are vastly better than ours…Sense engineering tells me that my home (in particular my deep well constant pressure pump) isn’t “Sense friendly” and after 19 months it’s detected very few of our 117+ electrical devices…and those not very reliably. So, when I get a chance,…

How are you supposed to hear a conversation across the room with someone yelling in your ear? That is what you’re expecting of Sense. The sheer amount of electrical noise your house has just from so many devices on it is the constant yelling. It only makes ‘Sense’ that you’re house is challenging i…

Correct, but that’s never mentioned in the Sense marketing….have also never seen it in the FAQ. I installed a WELserver a decade ago when we built our home, and it’s worked perfectly. It monitors the biggest consumers (Geothermal, hot water heater, radiant system, A/C, Solar, etc), but the reason I…

[image] andy: Congratulations. Your results are vastly better than ours No, your experience is vastly worse than most others. There’s a difference. [image] andy: it’s done none of that…sigh. So, I’m giving up. You keep saying that.

Lemme buy your sense monitor, @andy

[image] What's new in v23 and Web App v5.5: Smarts Plugs and Themes App Release Notes There’s a lot to read here. But for everyone reading, I chose TP-Link HS110 only because if the power is lost, the Wemo smart plug does not resume it’s last status… that is, when power is…

I bought a Wemo just to make a fair comparison. The default power on feature is a big deal. The Wemo community has been asking for this for several YEARS. Because of this, I can’t put the Wemo on any critical devices. TP-Link was also real easy to install and Sense found it faster.

Sense Team, Do you get useful data to help with your machine learning for finding devices that are not plugged into smart plugs? By using these devices, are we helping the process or just prolonging the eventual detection?

This is touched on in the blog mentioned above and in release notes: Sense Connects with Smart Plugs - Sense Blog The short answer is yes, we absolutely get useful data and that was one of the main impetuses behind this integration. Finally, we can get real ground truth data from devices that are o…

Machine Learning is typically done by training the ML/AI engine though, so I continue to question why Sense keeps insisting you can’t “train” Sense with more data? All ML things I’ve done/seen are typically done by training the models to recognize things by providing it lots and lots and lots of dat…
