Energy monitoring for Washer and Dryer Tower
Hello,
It would be nice if we could get the data out of the Washer and Dryer tower and graph it out in home assistant. I am able to see the data in the LG app on my phone.
+1 the energy data is missing for some of the regular washers and dryers too. I've got a WM6700HBA washer and DLEX6700B dryer and the energy usage data is missing too. I'll try to look into this myself if I get some time.
Thanks for the great integration. Got my new LG washing machine today - and was excited that I don't need my external Zigbee plug anymore to track the energy consumption (and integrate this into the HA energy dashboard), because the energy consumed is collected by the machine itself.
It would be great if you could add the energy consumption as a feature for washing machines. Many thanks!
This would be great. My FMY916BBTN1 UK supplied washer dryer doesn't expose energy numbers to HA, visible in the app.

Now on the app it is really accurate.
It would be nice to see this data in HA.
My washing machine model is F4R9009TPWC.
Not sure if it helps with prioritizing this issue - but maybe everyone interested in this could add an vote for the original issue raised by @glyall0423 . 🙂
I'm trying to investigate this by seeing what the LG ThinQ Android app does to load the data. The app has some protection to try and prevent people from reverse engineering it - it detects if the phone is rooted or if a debugger is attached and immediately quits with an error message. I have some ideas on how to work out what it's doing, though. I'll report back later this/next week with any findings.
For any Python developers that want to have a go at implementing this, I reverse engineered the API calls the ThinQ app uses for loading this data, and posted details in #814.
