Possibility to use the card for water or other non-electrical entities

[Gerhard Wanner]

It would be great if the card could also be used for the water flow. At the moment this is already possible, but always W or KW are used as measurement type (instead of e. g. Liters).

Additional context
This is my actual card including the water from outside and in- and outgoing of the cistern. Works fine, but how to remove the W?

I would love to get this feature working for water and maybe gaz if not using kW but m3?

Could you share your yaml for the above please @Diavolezza

Sure. Here it is:

Hi,
I would like to follow up here, as the current solution does not work for me. Apart from that, "Zisterne" and "Stadtwasser" each have the unit "W", which cannot be correct here (and has also been mentioned).
I use the power flow card plus to display my water consumption as an individual source (under "Individual")

This works quite well so far except for the fact that the consumption is displayed in litres and in cubic metres in the detailed view.

Unfortunately, I can't see any way of correcting this in the overview. But maybe it will help someone :)
