Mixing Scopes Between Power and Energy - Why Not?

[ziptbm]

The scope is clearly documented in the documentation for this card, but it seems like it's missing a key opportunity for a hybrid scenario. Why is it not advised to mix scopes between Power and Energy into a single card?

This card does not aim to display Energy Values (Meaning accumulated power over 1 day, for example). If this is your goal, check out the [Energy Flow Card Plus](https://github.com/flixlix/energy-flow-card-plus).

While it's great there are two card flavors for Power and Energy respectively, why shouldn't this support displaying Energy values as the secondary information? This can provide a single view that allows for one to glance at the dashboard and answer the following questions quickly:

• How much power is my solar/house/battery/vehicle/device actively consuming/producing right this moment?
• How much energy has my solar/house/battery/vehicle/device consumed/produced today?
• How much energy have I exported to the grid today?

I understand this is a power flow card, but I am using it as a Chromecast-based dashboard that's always visible in my home with the most important information for quick glances. Here's an example of what I had set up under before the 0.2 upgrade. 0.2 broke this configuration, so I'll be digging into reconfigure it when I have time under the new formatting, but I hope that this upgrade didn't remove the ability for me show energy as the secondary information for the entities.

No, it did not.

@ziptbm Did you managed to get the energy in the secondary information ? I interested to know how you did.
