Get rid off the Tibber App?

[PhotonSpheres]

I really like this integration - thanks!

My issue: I don't use Tibber as an energy provider. I just got my hands on a pulse and find it handy due to the battery powered sensor.

• Is there any way of getting rid of the Tibber App and sending data to Tibber while still having the bridge and pulse working?

might be @nhulsch have hints for you #45

well, I guess you could block the communication to the Internet for your device (eg. using a FritzBox).
Not sure if this will impact on the device's functionality - and obviously will prevent updates to the device, though.

First, do everything described in the README.
If you are using the tibber app, just remove the bridge afterwards (not the pulse ir, you should also have the bridge there). This will leave the sensor connected with the bridge.
-or-
If you don't want to use the tibber app to setup head over to the webinterface -> nodes -> enable pairing - the IR sensor should pair

Just to be on the save side before I break anything:

#1 I am running my pulse in the tibber app with the old tibber account (contract canceled last chrismas)
#2 I simply want to use the whole thing locally as a smartmeter reader to get data in HA locally 
#3 I have read the read.me and wanted to now if I am right when I have to remove the bridge from the App 
#4 I assume that I can remove the bridge after i have checked 
   "5. Final testing [do not continue if you did not complete this final step]" from "PART I" to 
   "PART III: Check 'Last seen' & 'Last data' [update frequency]"
#5 REMOVE BRIDGE FROM APP ... and then I can uninstall the app, right ?

thanks a lot
