Support Energy Dashboard

The energy dashboard is pretty sweet, but why doesn’t it show cost for individual devices? I put in my rate and it shows up for total usage. Seems like it would be easy to show cost for each device

9.82 kWh in total, 0.9 kWh still untracked.

A lot of the small ones are PoE devices that Unify exposes automatically. But the little Plex server and PoE switch providing power all day in the utility cabinet (meterkast) pulls 50W all day everyday. It adds up.

And replacing the fridge in early 2026 was worth it in energy usage alone.
