iVamp reads your electricity supply, inverters, batteries and energy meters directly over your home network and puts the whole picture on one screen: what's generating, what's charging, what the house is drawing and what it's costing. Works with Sigenergy and Fox ESS systems (GivEnergy, Huawei, SolarEdge, Deye and Tesla in the next release), with circuit-by-circuit detail (and any make of EV charger) from Shelly meters. For Windows, Mac and iPhone - Android is coming soon.
iVamp works for homes with solar, homes without it, and the people who install it. Pick yours.
You need: a Sigenergy or Fox ESS system. Nothing to buy or fit.
You need: a small Shelly energy meter, fitted in your consumer unit by a competent electrician.
You need: iVamp on your laptop, tablet or phone.
Free to download. Use it free with one device; iVamp Pro is a one-off Β£14.99, no subscription.
Energy meters for any circuit in your fuse box.
The whole system live: solar, battery, grid and home load from Sigenergy.
The whole system live: solar, battery, grid and home load from Fox ESS.
Powerwall 2 and Powerwall+ read straight from the Tesla Gateway, and the Wall Connector Gen 3 read directly - no Tesla account. Powerwall 3? Add a Shelly meter.
Unlike the Powerwall 2, the Powerwall 3 doesn't share its readings on your home network - Tesla only offers them through its cloud. iVamp keeps your data at home, so it monitors a Powerwall 3 with a small Shelly energy meter instead: a clamp round the Powerwall's AC cable shows exactly when it's charging and discharging, in the power flow, your costs and your history, alongside your solar, grid and the rest of the house.
You need: a Shelly EM or Pro EM with a clamp on the Powerwall 3's AC cable, fitted in your consumer unit by a qualified electrician. In iVamp, set that clamp to Battery.
Good to know: the meter measures power, so you'll see charge and discharge but not the battery's percentage - the Tesla app still shows that.
Which meter do I need?Your charger's app shows the charger. iVamp shows it alongside your solar, battery and the rest of the house - when the car is charging, how much it has taken and what it cost at your tariff - whichever brand of charger you have. Keep the charger's app for controlling charging; use iVamp to see what it means for your home.

iVamp searches your home network for your Shelly meters and your Sigenergy or Fox ESS system - or add a device by its IP address.
Give each device a role (solar, battery, grid, EV), lay out your dashboard, then follow iVamp's tips on the cheapest times to run things.
Real-time watts, volts and amps, with an animated power flow of grid, solar, battery, EV and house - updated every couple of seconds.
iVamp studies your half-hourly usage, spots your cheapest windows and shows what you'd save by shifting flexible loads. No expensive battery required.
Your spend and your COβ side by side, tariff-aware, with your savings versus a fossil grid.
Your footprint shown as trees and miles not driven, with editable emission factors and per-circuit control.
Gauges, tiles, charts, weather and power flow across as many pages as you like, with colour themes and todayβs-totals cards. Arrange it your way on a phone, laptop or wall screen.
Energy and cost trends per circuit over days, weeks and months, so you can see where the money goes.
Vendor-neutral by design, so new hardware drops in without switching apps.
Talks to your equipment directly, so it keeps working when the internet or the makerβs cloud is down. Your readings stay in your home; sharing with your installer is opt-in.
Reports, alerts and data that go straight to the people who need them - installers, landlords, facilities teams or you.
Run a monitoring session and iVamp builds a report with charts and min / max / average figures for every circuit. Export as PDF or CSV.
One tap packages a screenshot, a summary of every device and the last hour of readings, and emails it to your installer from your own email account.
Get told when a reading goes above or below a level you set - a circuit overloading, or the solar going quiet - by email and notification.
Installers and electricians can add their own logo, colours and client details for professional, client-ready reports.
Run iVamp on a laptop, a phone, or a wall-mounted display in an office, school or shared space, so everyone can see the energy being used.
