Since i drive an electric car i wanted to get some more insights in how much energy i use charging my car . The Aeon Labs Home Energy Meter is a low-cost energy meter for the entire home. It can wirelessly report immediate wattage and kWh usage to central Z-Wave control point gateways and can be easily and safely installed by anyone. I think for my issue, I need somebody who actually has one of these units running to comment on how they did so. I do not really need elementary best practice assistance as I have many devices already configured and I’ve been doing home automation for several years now.
When ready for pairing, tap “Next” to start the process. Z-Wave certified can be used and communicate with other ZWave certified devices. Displayed in the user interface of the gateway/controller.

After that I could add a device in the SmartThings app and it found it immediately. @mike.maxwell, has this DH that is supplied with HE certified to work by anyone? When I pair the home energy meter, it gets added as a generic device, and I have to manually change the handler to the Aeon Home Energy Meter. As well as use the other 2 meters to monitor 4 additional branch circuits, but that doesn't seem possible.
Installed in an electricity box, the energy meter will monitor the total consumption of electricity used by an entire building. And its intelligent clamps will report that energy use back to your Z-Wave gateway or controller, in watts or kilowatt-hours, and in real time. So you can see how much electricity you really use and when you use it. I recently bought the v.1 and added to my ST environment (Hub v2.0). I paired it via zwave and let ST decide it was the “Aeon Home Energy Meter”. Since the initial addition, I have done more research and found your additional custom device type.
What device would you like to integrate?
The Aeon Labs Home Energy Meter can also be powered via USB and does not require battery power when using the USB to draw power. The USB can also be used to easily upgrade the internal software by the end-user such that the latest Z-Wave protocol and commands are always available. I’m not sure what the driver needs to expose to work with the energy meter dashboard tile. I tried pressing the link button, which resulted in an instant auto-link. I tried pressing the configure button, which does not appear to do anything.
While I am pretty sure it will not work for your newer HEM , it may give you some clues on things to change in the ST DTH when porting it over to Hubitat. Aeon Labs does offer device Chandler‘s for SmartThings. You can now monitor your energy consumption and trigger scenes with your Aeon Labs Home Energy Meter and the Vera app.

I apologize, it's been a while since I set mine up. I do recall not seeing any readings in the driver configuration page until I clicked configure, and the HEM had a value to read. So I believe you will need to install the clamps to get even a baseline value to appear.
Finally, if all else fails, you should reach out to @mike.maxwell as he writes and maintains most of the Hubitat Drivers. He would know for sure which model of the 'Aeon Home Energy Meter' the built-in driver is designed to work with. The pairing process we are about to see also works with our entire family of controllers.

I try to change the device type without removing and re-adding the zwave device but it gives me an error when I try to display it on my phone. I see the data in the IDE and also on my Smarttiles. One of the devices I bought is an energy meter. Since I drive an electric car I wanted to get some more insights in how much energy I use charging my car . I have the first gen DSB09104-ZWUS, same as @ogiewon. I'm also using the @mike.maxwell 's Aeon V1 Laundry DTH that Dan ported to Hubitat.
The DTH for this is supposedly quite different than the one he used as his source. I did not look at the original, and now That I returned mine, I wont be buying another one until I know it works, and works fully. I'll get my code cleaned up and post it here soon in case anybody else has this device and wants to get it running in Hubitat.
It can wirelessly report immediate wattage and k. Meter can only communicate to devices within it’s own zwave network. The device driver I posted is pretty use case specific—I’m monitoring washer and dryer wattages to detect when laundry cycles are done. I just looked through the code you linked, and yes, it is very different. But really the difference between the two devices comes down to the Gen5 requiring secure inclusion mode in order to send configuration commands.
Authorizing an agent to sign this application, is done solely at the applicant's discretion; however, the applicant remains responsible for all statements in this application. Next will be using a script to report this data to Xively or Bidgely to see some data over time. Right, but he is unsure about the values being read, and this is the actual ST supported code.
Also, there is a WiKi thread describing some of the changes necessary when porting drivers and apps from ST to Hubitat. You've probably already seen it, but I thought it couldn't hurt to link it here just in case. Since it is a Wiki, please feel free to add to the first post with any additional findings you come across.
