Wrong values after upgrade to ESPHome 2023.8.0

[Barma-lej]

When upgrading from 2023.7.1 to 8.0, it appears that the pulse_meter function has become broken or changed. The counter goes crazy and increments at a high rate endlessly.

There was a lot of issues:
#298 #301 #302 #309

In ESPHome 2023.8.0, there was a pulse_meter refactoring. The default mode is now EDGE instead of PULSE as before.

To use the PULSE mode, you need to add the internal_filter_mode option to the pulse_meter configuration, like this:

  - platform: pulse_meter
    name: '${friendly_name} - Power Consumption'
    id: sensor_energy_pulse_meter
    internal_filter_mode: PULSE
    unit_of_measurement: 'W'
    state_class: measurement
    ...

It's better to use option internal_filter: 100ms

Really? I get no results at all if I set internal_filter higher than 5ms. EG:

internal_filter_mode: PULSE
internal_filter: 5ms
