@Daedalus - register your meters with the Bright app (Bright/Glowmarkt are a registered "DCC Other User") then Glowmarkt will extract and store 13 months of ½ hourly readings from your meter, and continue adding to this store from then on.
I've done this to do a daily read-over of my meter data, using a Python program to extract to a mySql database running on a raspberryPI, so now have instant access to my data for checking bills/usage analysis etc
@geoffers Many thanks for this. The app downloaded and setup just great. I think I will need to wait until tomorrow to see how well it does work in full. I will have to see if I can set up my Pi to do this as well as act as the Pi Hole for getting rid of the adverts. I need to have a longer look at your other post and see if I can work it out. I have been building PC's and setting them up since about 1993, but have never been able to work out how to do any coding, straight over the top of my head. But then I'm a mechanical engineer, my excuse and I'm sticking to it.
@Daedalus Some great advice by @geoffers here 😁 How did you get on with this?
@geoffers I might have to give this a try for myself - it would be useful to have to see what specific times we use the most energy😀
Together we can work to achieve a more sustainable Future 🌥

@Connor_EONNext - maybe I'll start a separate thread on hints for getting started using the API website, as it looks a bit daunting until you get your head round how to use it 👍
