Hi! I'm getting my dorm set up with HomeAssistant, and I have noticed that my dashboard shows the "total use" field in kWh when it should really be impossible for these devices to use more than a kilowatt-hour in the day they've been installed. Is there a way I can tell HomeAssistant from the web UI that this is wrong? I did some googling, but I was only able to find "manually edit the config files".

I don't see any kWh in that screenshot?

The energy dashboard is hardcoded to kWh as it is meant track whole homes and not a single small device

does it thus assume that all small devices report in kWh or something?

oops, let me flip it back- i mis-changed it
I don't mind that the units it shows are in kWh, that's fine. My only real concern is that it's assuming readings that are not in kWh are in kWh

HA makes no assumptions about this, something along the way told it these were kWh.
where does the sensor come from?

where does the sensor come from?
it's an Innr Zigbee Smart Plug

That plug is probably reporting the wrong value
tawdry valley
Weird. it's reporting right values for everything else
oh joy. apparently this is a known issue with my specific plug brand

You can make a template sensor to divide it by 1000.

is installing a quirk to do the same for all devices advertising as that plug also a good solution?

If it works sure... can't say I've tried that though.

do a firmware update if its not on 1.9.30 or 1.9.34 as older versions had a bug in scaling
you may also need to reconfigure button after the update

In Z2M it’s in the OTA tab

how do i see this number? I only have hex values, and there was an update, but it doesn't seem to have fixed it
runic nacelle
It’s just visible in z2m had the press the yellow reconfigure button after the update to get it to report the correct scale.
Had to do this on 4 of the 8 I have that shipped with an old version.
