Rainforest Eagle

Integrates energy usage and pricing from the Rainforest Automation’s Eagle 3, Eagle-200 and Legacy Eagle energy gateways. These devices work over Zigbee Energy Profile to connect to your smart meter. As such, they do not connect to your regular Zigbee network (you don’t even need a Zigbee network as part of your system), but typically will need to be provisioned (that is to say, connected to your meter) by your utility. You then connect the Eagle to your home network and can pull energy usage via the device’s local API. The price will only be included if it is provided by the electricity meter. If you picked an electricity plan in the app, the price data will not be available.

As the Eagle 3 runs the same API as the Eagle 200, Home Assistant will set up your Eagle 3 as an “Eagle 200”.
