Will Sense every properly detect my dryer or other appliances?

I hope your Sense reset helps ! I’m living proof that an unaided (without smart-plug) Sense can find:

Bosch Oven (Heating Element Only - 240V ?)

Make: Bosch Model: HBL8650UC/07 How identified: Sense Identification Additional Comments: Built in oven, heating element only. Different temperature settings vary the pulse width modulation of the heating cycle. Given the specced max power is 8.4kW and my waveforms don’t show anything past 4.2kW, I’m wondering if I’m only seeing the power for a single leg. Or perhaps it only goes to 8.4kW at the high end or during Broiling. I’ll have to try that sometime, but we hardly ever use Broil. Powe…

Microwave - One out of two, both different models.

Sharp Drawer Microwave Oven

Make: Sharp Model: KB-6524PS How identified: Sense Identification, and later HS110 smartplug Additional Comments: Sense found the same model microwave without retraining. https://community.sense.com/t/new-replacement-microwave-will-it-be-detected/10501/8 Power Specs: Please note the potentially conflicting power specs for both input and output. Output - one is using the official IEC test procedure (heating 2 500ml beaker of water), the other one is not specified, Input - one is 1.5kW p…

Dryer - Finds the heating element, but not the tumbler. Also frequently conflates with one of my floor heaters so I see both in the Dryer.

Washing Machine - I have that on an HS110, since it has a DC motor and electronic controls.

LG Washing Machine

Make: LG Model: WM3700HWA How identified: How it was identified - Smart plug Additional Comments: Has companion App that “measures” power consumption. Some day I will compare. Power Specs: Detailed View: Two back-to-back wash cycles (different settings) [image] Waveform Source. Source of waveform - Device Power Meter

Dish Washer - Partial. Not sure which component. Not sure how one would figure out % of total.

Bosch Dishwasher (SHX68T56UC)

Make: Bosch Model: SHX68T55UC How identified: Sense Identification Additional Comments: Sense found this, and it correlates with the running of the dishwasher, but I really don’t know which electrical component of the washer Sense is seeing (heating element, motor). But it’s the dishwasher since the washer is running and I see the partial waveform below: [IMG_2784] Interesting to compare to @jlj.pers Bosch dishwasher captured via smart plug: Power Specs: 120V AC, EnergyStar model, Estim…

Nespresso - Discovered without any aid.

Nespresso "Instant" Coffee Maker

Make: Nespresso Model: VertuoPlus Waveform source: Device Power Meter How identified: Sense Identification Additional Comments: Sample of a typical morning - initial warmup and two cups of coffee for me and my wife. Power Spec: 120V, 1,300W Detailed View: Initial warmup and two cups of coffee [IMG_2663] Daily View: Coffee at the start of every day [IMG_2664]
