Unremovable Duplicated Output Entities about iotawatt_ha HOT 5 OPEN

The only thing I can think to ask is are you using MQTT?

from iotawatt_ha.

Yes I do have MQTT running for some Tasmota Devices, would that interfere?

Not unless it is those entities that are duplicating. MQTT can store entries for things that have been deleted and that causes them to reappear. However if you aren't using that for iotawatt then that isn't the problem.
If you keep re-adding the integration then that will be why you are getting multiple entities. You should be able to delete them from the CONFIGURATION menu?

Thanks for your response, yes I have added it multiple times to try and fix the problem, and it keeps adding entities each time. I thought these would be deleted once the integration was removed ?

Which 'Configuration' menu are you referring to, I can't see that in HA?

I have 'System Options' which gives toggles for new entities and update polling, but no where to delete entities.

In entities it says this entity doesn't have a unique ID so it can't be edited/removed, as per pic above.

This can be hard and might require editing the registry files. Do a Google search of “hassio remove entities” and you will get a bunch of threads and hopefully one will be the answer for you…
