Sparky 3 - Realtime P1 meter - Insight in your energy usage via an app
New features
Expected solar generation and gas consumption: Connect your solar inverter in the Chargee app and view your expected solar generation up to 48 hours in advance. You also get insight into your expected gas consumption based on the weather and your historical consumption data.
Insight into load per phase: With live insight into phase load you can immediately see whether the power in your home is evenly distributed over all phases. With this insight you can use energy more efficiently. Because by distributing the load evenly you prevent a phase from becoming overloaded. The Sparky P1 meter also measures the mains voltage on your main connection in voltage.
Negative electricity prices: Do you have a dynamic energy contract? Then receive one-off notifications about negative electricity prices and discover the most interesting time of day to use energy, such as charging your electric car. Benefit from low rates and save even more on your energy bill.
Connect with different devices: The Chargee app connects you to solar inverters, electric cars, EV-chargers, smart thermostats, air conditioners, heat pumps, home batteries and meters.

Accurate to the second
The Chargee app gives you detailed insight into your energy consumption and return. Accurate to the second, both live and historical.
Easy to expand
Unique for a P1 meter, Sparky also has a built-in splitter. This means that you can connect even more P1 devices to your smart meter. For example, the P1 dongle from your dynamic energy supplier. Handy, because now you don't have to buy an extra splitter!
Easy to install yourself: click, connect to WiFi and you're done
Click the Sparky P1 meter into the P1 port of your smart meter. After you have connected Sparky to WiFi via our app, you will see the energy consumption of your home within seconds. It can be that easy!
Historical analysis
Compare your consumption per day, week, month or year. The clear graphs give you a clear insight into your energy consumption.
Energy consumption prediction
Want to get an idea of your expected consumption? The Chargee app shows your expected electricity and gas consumption. And if you have connected your solar inverter, your expected generation as well. So you know exactly what to expect.
