Hi!
I want to make a system for a new flat to read the current status of the meters(water, energy) using rpi and send to the user(web, app). I want to do this for a new flat so I can afford to install the kind of meters I want.
After a little research, I saw that many companies offer such meters together with ready-made software. I've also seen quite a few smart home projects, but that's not what I'm after. Could you advise me what kind of meters I can buy and how to connect them to the rpi in order to create such a remote reading system, because while I will have no problem transferring such data from the rpi to anywhere, I am green when it comes to meters or reading data from them. I should also add that I have an rpi model B and am not interested in livestreaming with a camera showing on the counter screen
