I been looking to add some sensors for power, mainly power in but possible some rooms/sockets.
Also some smart switches for lights, wall display
i have been looking at some of shelly stuff, but wonder what community recommend.
Also looking for other stuff to add, very new to HA, but like to tinker so open for other stuff too.

Big ol lump of requirements there.
For the power monitoring I like the Frient power monitors that hook onto a meters LED flash, usually at every WattHour.
The rest requires a lot more information. For instance that power meter needs a working Zigbee network. Do you have one? Are you happy to set one up? I’d suggest you do, as WiFi is generally a poor choice for large complicated iot setups.

shelly is definitely recommended and trustworthy. they have quite the range too so can usually find what you need when it comes to power stuff
