Changes

  • Reverted state_class = TOTAL_INCREASING on the live sensor — only the eyeonwater:water_meter_* external statistic should appear in the Energy Dashboard.
  • The live sensor.water_meter_* entity is now display-only again (no state_class), so HA won't auto-compile statistics for it.
  • unit_class=volume still always set on external statistics metadata (beta.6 fix retained).

Why

Having both sensor.* and eyeonwater:* in the Energy Dashboard picker confused users. The eyeonwater:* external statistic provides accurate hourly data from the API. HA's built-in cost tracking (static price) only works with entity-backed statistics, but this trade-off is preferable to the confusion of two entries.

Note on cost tracking

Static price configuration in the Energy Dashboard requires an entity-backed statistic. With this release, users who need cost tracking will need to use a template sensor or automation. We are investigating better solutions.
