Visualizing energy with Raspberry pi, dancing LEDs, and Sense

I used the realtime websocket to get live info every ~10 seconds or so and feed it into some dancing LEDs.

The pixels will show energy flowing from panels to grid, or grid to panels depending on production & consumption. Taller waves mean more energy. A small monochrome screen below shows the actual values and a digital wheel showing how much is flowing.
