Looking for a zigbee power meter plug without a switch (lemmy.ml)

As the title says, I'm looking for a plug that can measure power consumption, but does not even have a relay to power it on or off. I want it always to be on. The reason is that I'm tired of my smart plugs randomly turning off for no reason, even after I've updated them to the latest firmware version. Heck, I even have an automation in Home Assistant that turns them on again when it happens. I don't even know if what I'm looking for does even exist. I've been looking around and haven't found anything like it. If any of you fine folks know, please shout!

I think you might want to focus in a slightly different direction in that you want one with controls for power loss on AC that you can set. The physical button doesn't matter the firmware does.

The Emporia ones I have do have firmware settings for that, but I have zero idea if ALL of them do. I think I got mine 3-4 years ago, so it may be different now with updated versions.
