Unable to use power consumption with sonoff POW Elite

Danny24 opened this issue 2 years ago · 6 comments

Hi,

I am trying to use my sonoff POW Elite (Powr316d) with the API to recover the power consumption from a Raspberry Pi. But it fails, it says: "error: 404, msg: 'No power usage data found'" However all the other options in the API works well, I can eve toggle the device ON state.
This same code works just fine with a sonoff POW R3. And I can see the data correctly in the app and in the web browser. So I think is something related to the device or the API, not my code. Can you help me make this work? Or at least give me an alternative way to archive this?

Greetings!

Dumb question, how I can test this change since there is no new release available?

npm uninstall ewelink-api

Thanks :)

I uninstalled the original one and installed the one you told me.

I have been trying over the weekend, but the problem persist. It still says "{ error: 404, msg: 'No power usage data found' }" when using the sonoff pow elite. With the sonoff pow r3 it works just nice.

getDevice('sonoff_id') works fine but getDevicePowerUsage('sonoff_id',true) returns error 404.
