NS Vue, FYI only on differences in one second data sets

[tmorse305]

I thought I would share this with other users of Emporia Vue and Plugs in case you run into it.  The 1 second data collection on the smart plugs is actually a 5 second average which can yield some surprising values.  From Emporia:

"The Gen 2 does save real time one-second averaged power for its measurements, the Smart Plugs themselves will report five-second averages for the same. So the behavior you're noticing as the difference is simply down to the fact that the Gen 2 has a higher measurement resolution than the Smart Plugs do at the moment. That also covers the timing/time-window offsets as well since the Gen 2 will be able to assign usage to specific one-second buckets whereas the Smart Plug has to pick a 5-second bucket for usage as well (which has them look offset when applied on top of each other)."

I attached a few example to show what the reported differences can look like.  The blue trace is Vue, the orange is the plug.  X axis is seconds.
