I was looking at the Clipsal range, but open to more options case use: Monitoring rainwater tank pump. Basically wanna see / script an alert if it's drawing current out of timed use, which would catch leaks or ruptures in the poly. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] CameronDev@programming.dev 1 point 1 year ago (1 child) I setup an esphome to monitor my water meter for tre same purpose (minus the tank).
