How can I see the load information from an Insteon outlet?

For some reason I remembered that Insteon OutletLinc devices have a built-in sensor of their connected load. I've seen this readout in other controllers.

I looked around in Indigo but all I get is the status and last update.

Do I need to inject it into a variable or something??

I'll bet you think this post is about you. Don't you. ♪

Re: How can I see the load information from an Insteon outle

I don't believe the OutletLinc (or any other Insteon modules, except the iMeter) report Watts or kWh. They have load sense but that just detects if the load is ON or OFF and doesn't report energy/power usage. That load sense state just gets reflected (by the module) to be the on/off state of the module. There isn't an independent load sense state -- just the on/off state.
