If anyone is looking for a recommendation I’ve been using sonoff s31’s for my ac unit and gaming pc’s. They track power and can easily be flashed with tasmota so you don’t need to deal with any cloud bs
Edit: autocorrect is trash
Not sure about S31, but I have a couple or TH16s (rated at 16A/~3500W), and I've read a bunch of reviews where the units can't handle the rated power and burn up. To be on the safe side, I connected it to a contactor instead of wiring directly to an appliance.
I'm using s40's myself! Hoping I can flash with tasmota, didn't know that was an option!
