I hope everyone’s doing well.
I’m here to bring a small update on some changes we’ve made to the Community Device Library, with a view of what else you can expect to see here in the coming weeks.
Wattage Ranges added to Community Device Library Posts
Previously, Community members were only able to search device posts by Device Type/Category (examples include: Water Heater, HVAC, Fridge, etc.). We’ve been gradually adding Wattage Ranges to each individual device post, enabling Community members to search the Community Device Library by wattage range and/or devices.
This is a great option for investigating unnamed devices that Sense may have detected. If you can see the average wattage of the unknown device, you can browse similar devices (based on their wattage) and see if you have any similar devices in your home. The goal is to provide some visual examples of similar devices and enable users to narrow down potential unknown devices based on similar submissions from the Community.
In the coming weeks, I will:
- Open the ability for more Community users to post their devices to the device library (currently, this requires special permissions granted by a Community admin).
- Updating process/procedure for posting a new device to the library
- Gradually backfill the remaining historical posts that have not been tagged.
Please keep this thread limited to feedback on how I can make this update more helpful for users - very much open to feedback from folks here!
