[scorx]

KC868-AI not have so much free gpio. if you want many free GPIO, you can chose kincony S3 controller.

you can chose by this platform: https://mq.kincony.com/qq/product/product-selector  this is easy to chose kincony board.

Thank you for the feedback, this is what I need!

Code:

# Example configuration entry
sensor:
  - platform: pulse_counter
    pin: GPIOXX
    unit_of_measurement: 'kW'
    name: 'Power Meter House'
    filters:
      - multiply: 0.06  # (60s/1000 pulses per kWh)

    total:
      unit_of_measurement: 'kWh'
      name: 'Energy Meter House'
      filters:
        - multiply: 0.001  # (1/1000 pulses per kWh)

2 more question please: 

1. I see there is also a total variable. How should I interpret this? Is it stored on the device itself or would the variable not survive a reboot
2. Do you have any idea or suggestion how I could sending the live consumption ? For total I could use UDP with a set interval, but for live consumption I need to send all the data, and via UDP this would probably flood the network.
