I am super interested in using Eve in my home - I’ve wanted to track energy usage at the outlet level for years. I’ve tried multiple solutions like the now defunct Zuli Kickstarter product, Belkin’s WeMo energy monitoring plugs, and researched others but none of them were developer friendly and very obviously leaked data into the cloud for their company’s own benefit, not mine. I love this ideology and more IoT manufacturers should take note.

Do Eve products allow developers to connect to the devices locally and stream power usage data from them to a local data store? I am a data professional and want to wire up my entire home to an automated analytics pipeline for all energy monitoring plugs I have installed using a locally-hosted Python script.

If and when that feature is enabled I will fill my entire home with these smart plugs. Love it.
