Change output 1.8.0 / 2.8.0 from Wh to kWh

[AndyWo83]

Is it possible to include the output from Wh to kWh in the config, since most people work with kwh anyway?

static const SensorConfig SENSOR_CONFIGS[] = {
    {.pin = D2, // GPIO pin of the phototransistor
     .name = "1", // Sensor name used in MQTT topic
     .numeric_only = false, // If "true", only numeric values are being published via MQTT
     .output_kwh = true,// If "true", output value in kWh   <--- !!!!!!!NEW!!!!!!!!
     .status_led_enabled = true, // Flash status LED (3 times) when an SML start sequence has been found
     .status_led_inverted = true, // Some LEDs (like the ESP8266 builtin LED) require an inverted output signal
     .status_led_pin = LED_BUILTIN, // GPIO pin used for sensor status LED
     .interval = 0 // If greater than 0, messages are published every [interval] seconds
    }};

That's why I'm currently using Tasmota and there smartmeter integration, but I would like to switch to this, since Tasmota only sends the data via MQTT every 10 seconds.

Hello,

Tasmota can send the data more often. you have to add 16 to the precision definition in the M-statement:
<precision> | number of decimal places. Add 16 to transmit the data immediately. Otherwise it is transmitted on TelePeriod only.

Hi,
to get this, I added the lines
if (scaler<0) {
scaler -=3; //convert values from Wh to kWhum
prec=3;
}

at line 103 of MqttPublisher.h to convert the values from Wh to kWh.

Maybe that helps someone...

@mruettgers Would be nice to see this change in the next version.
