/*
   The MySensors Arduino library handles the wireless radio link and protocol
   between your home built sensors/actuators and HA controller of choice.
   The sensors forms a self healing radio network with optional repeaters. Each
   repeater and gateway builds a routing tables in EEPROM which keeps track of the
   network topology allowing messages to be routed to nodes.

   REVISION HISTORY
   Version 1.0 - Henrik Ekblad
   Version 1.1 - Peter Andersson added millis watt calculation if time between pulses > 1h

   DESCRIPTION
   This sketch provides an example how to implement a LM393 PCB
   Use this sensor to measure kWh and Watt of your house meter
   You need to set the correct pulsefactor of your meter (blinks per kWh).
   The sensor starts by fetching current kWh value from gateway.
   Reports both kWh and Watt back to gateway.

   Unfortunately millis() won't increment when the Arduino is in
   sleepmode. So we cannot make this sensor sleep if we also want
   to calculate/report watt value.
