I got a couple of PM plugs with Matter support. I can’t pair them with HomeKit or Home Assistant. I spent about 5h troubleshooting this, inspecting network packets and whatnot and didn’t get any closer to having them working.
I’d rather things just had MQTT support. Happy with Zigbee though, as I can route those to MQTT as well.
@c10l EVE’s Energy have been providing energy metering under Matter for the last few months.
Ok, it was a HA specific solution.
I got a few smart plugs with matter. They paired nicely with HA, but surprised me by falling into their app anyhow.
But they work. Those are Kasa/tp-link.
What're yours?
They’re Meross, this one specifically.

@c10l @homeassistant These have been rock solid for me. I am not sure how to see the energy being used.
This is great (seriously).
What remains to be seen is how long it takes between announcement and update of Matter devices.
