Model: Tapo P110  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I had a power bank plugged into the P110 with an AV receiver, and the TV and Sky box running through it showing around 180 watts of power usage (which is the high end rating of the TV) , when I put everything in standby then switch on the AV it's drawing 60W,however I reconnected everything bypassing the receiver and still when in standby the TV and Sky are still showing the same, any ideas, wasn't reading the 60W in the first place?

Thanks in advance

There are safe hazards using the Tapo P110 smart plug to control multiple appliances with a power strip (same for the power bank, especially the connected devices are running at the same time). This might also affect the accuracy of the energy monitoring feature.

 

Connect only one appliance to the smart plug and check the data again.
