[Feature request]: multiple entries with same kWh-sensor

[strelniece]

I'm trying to find an easy way to keep track of different parts of my electricity cost. How much is for the spot-price, how much is tax etc ( five different to be exact...)

But it seems I can only create one entry for each kWh-sensor .

Don't know how difficult it would be to make it possible to fix this, or if there is another easy solution i'm open for suggestions.

thanks

Ok, have to modify my request. It seems I can create multiple entries, but all entities end up in the same device with just an number separating the id:s.

It works, but could benefit from some changes in the implementation where you set the namne of the device and entities not based on the kWh-sensor but the name you give it instead.

as a workaround, i added a utility meter on my power meter; and use that one in the entry setup... no more xxx_2, xxx_3 entities.

Ah, I will try that, smart thinking!
