See every watt by source and circuit so hidden drain is obvious.
POWER VISIBILITY
Power Visibility
You have solar, grid, and generator, but no clear view of which loads are driving your power costs.
VisibilityControlResilience
8Bit gives you source-level visibility, outage evidence, and machine-level accountability so you can cut overall energy waste, reduce fuel and grid spend, and explain every kWh.
Control
Automate load shedding and source switching using real thresholds.
Resilience
Keep rule execution and nearby BLE control available during internet loss.
After visibility is clear, 8Bit automations can cut non-critical loads and shift switching logic so your system responds before waste grows.
REAL ENVIRONMENTS
What this looks like in real life
For Homes
Hybrid home with rising overnight drain
A household tracks overnight drain by source, then automates water-heater and AC cutback when battery falls below target SOC.
For Organisations
SME with multi-circuit uncertainty
A print shop maps generator vs grid usage per circuit, then automates non-critical machine shutdown during outages to cut fuel burn.
SOLUTION FLOW
How 8Bit solves power uncertainty
Hydra captures live data across battery, solar, and AC channels at the same time.
The app visualizes source contribution and load behavior in one timeline.
Automation rules use these live values to protect battery runtime and reduce fuel waste.
Teams verify outages and usage patterns with export-ready records for decisions and accountability.
AUTOMATION IN CONTEXT
Automation in this environment
After visibility is clear, 8Bit automations can cut non-critical loads and shift switching logic so your system responds before waste grows.
Automation rules that act on battery, load, and mains conditions
How 8Bit solves this in the app
- Automation rules that act on battery, load, and mains conditions
- Live source split: grid vs solar vs battery vs generator
- Per-channel and per-circuit usage with daily and monthly trends
- BLE fallback and local execution keep control active during ISP downtime
ADVANTAGE
Why this works better than basic metering
- Basic meters show totals; 8Bit shows source behavior and action triggers.
- You get actionable event history plus automation outcomes, not only snapshots.
- One app tracks homes and business installations with the same control model.
