## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this be set up to use and view on a desktop computer or does a person have to have a cellphone?**
A: For those of you familiar with Python or Docker, the open-source Vuegraf project allows you to pull all metrics from the vue service and store them into your own InfluxDB and build graphs in Grafana. You can set alarms to trigger when certain thresholds are breached. Search the Internet for vuegraf and it should be the first result.

**Q: Is there a subscription needed?**
A: No. You just get the device and download the app.

**Q: Does this work with a 240 line?**
A: Yes.  Assuming you meant a 240 VOLT load, there are settings that allow you to only need one clamp but the app will then double the readings appropriately.

**Q: How much discrete energy does this product use?**
A: Well you could put an ampmeter on and see, thats ok I got it... so my Ideal meter flashes between 0.000 and 0.001Amps. In other words, its draws next to nothing, your christmas tree lights surpass this greatly... real reply from a emporia owner who only got this because CMP sucks.... also an electrician.. cheers

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by G***N on 3 September 2021*

Having just dropped a sizeable chunk of our savings on 8.5kW of solar PV and a Tesla Powerwall, we've gotten very conscious of energy use in our home. I wanted a way to measure individual circuit consumption, and after trawling the internet, looking at the technologies and reading reviews, I decided that the Emporia Vue 2 was probably the best bet. Firstly, it's very accurate, as in +/- 1% accuracy from my experience so far. Being mains powered rather than battery powered, the unit can reference the measured circuit phase angle to give very accurate power consumption. Secondly, it's easy to install and setup, though UK consumer units pose certain challenges. More on that later... Thirdly, the App is really well thought out, easy to use, provides a phenomenal level of granularity and is easy to export .CSV data to manipulate in Excel for instance. The level of detail available will easily satisfy even the nerdiest of nerds! Rather than install the first unit in the house, I opted to install it in my garden Office/Workshop/ManCave so that I could tinker around, figure out how it all works and determine the best way to fit it without disrupting the main house supply. SWMBO works long hours from home, much of the time on conference calls, so killing the power/internet/network regularly whilst tinkering wasn't a viable option. The biggest challenge I had is that UK consumer units just don't have much free space in them. Just getting the sensors in there is a fairly tight fit. Trying to shoe-horn the excess sensor cabling, the unit itself and the wi-fi cable into my CU was impossible, so I had to get a little creative. In the end, I opted to mount the unit externally to the CU. I used one of the bottom, 20mm knock-outs, drilled it out to ~23mm and fitted a PG16 gland, which was just big enough to fiddle the (5) sensor plugs and power cables through. I also snipped the heatshrink off the WiFi lead and unscrewed the antenna from the cable, then fitted the antenna directly to the main unit. The unit has no wall mounts, so a few adhesive velcro pads hold it in place. One item the instructions don't cover is UK final ring circuits (ring mains). Reading between the lines in the instructions, you'd think that clamping 1 wire and using a 2.0 X multiplier would be the correct approach, right? Wrong. Ring circuits rarely balance properly. It depends very much on the circuit load and how close it is to one end of the ring vs the other. The right approach is to clamp both wires and use a 1.0 X multiplier. CT sensors measure Total current passing through the sensor, so will measure the sum of the current passing through each wire. Fitting this way gives much more accurate readings. The unit is really easy to configure. Connecting to WiFi is easy and the App is very intuitive. If you want to properly monitor power consumption in your home then this is by far the best option on the market.
