TO REPRODUCE

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Download Firmware Version 11.1. or newer. Was working on 11.0.

EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR

A clear and concise description of what you expected to happen.

I expect the consumed Power not to be negative, as it was before Version 11.1

SCREENSHOTS

If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

Attached is a 70W incandescent light bulb.

ADDITIONAL CONTEXT

Add any other context about the problem here.

(Please, remember to close the issue when the problem has been addressed)

[arendst]

Caused by this #15265

Will re-evaluate as I see some issues in there,

[barbudor]

It may be possible that different hardware designers have been using power monitoing chips in one direction or the other. The previous abs() was then masking this.
May be introducing yet another SO for changing the sign ?

[ascillato2]

Closing as the issue has been fixed by Theo. Thanks.

[sergios100]

Thanks everyone for the quick help!
One Question: the issue seems to be fixed, but where can I get the fixed release?
I tried this here: http://ota.tasmota.com/tasmota/tasmota.bin.gz but my issue still persists.

Thanks!

[sfromis]

Fix should be included in current development binary, the URL you link. Better check the "Build Date & Time" on your device, like on the Tasmota "Information" page, to verify which one you have flashed.

[arendst]

Let me chk the code again.

[arendst]

Try latest development (available within half an hour) which rolls back the changes made since 11.0 for the BL0942 only.

[sergios100]

Hi Theo!
Yes now it works after I did send the command "PowerSet":

Thank you very much!

[Le-Duc0069]

Chào Theo! Vâng, bây giờ nó hoạt động sau khi tôi đã gửi lệnh "PowerSet":

Cảm ơn rất nhiều!

How do you use powerset to make it a positive value? I did it but it didn't work

[g6094199]

i see this on 14.1.0 too on a tuya device
