    Hi,

    Just sharing a confirmed working template for the Arlec PC191BKHA Series 3 smart plugs with energy monitoring (Australian plug from Bunnings). They can be quite cheap. Picked them up awhile ago now, and never got around to uploading. Also, there is another Series 3 teardown that is for a slightly different version, but pins still seem to match and opening the case is the same (Series 3 HA model not BKHA).

    Ran a bit warm, so set up the power save settings and spaced out MQTT timings.
    Power monitoring via BL0937 is working correctly.
    Tested using OpenBeken with stable MQTT Home Assistant setup.

    If anyone else has this same board revision, this should save a bit of trial and error.

    This device has two relays, so it cuts off both L and N? That's impressive. I very rarely see such devices.
