Not a flame, but It's a shame that this wasn't developed as a 'smaller' version, able to monitor 4 x 12V batteries in total (i.e. up to 48V), with support for:

• i2C (to put a BME680 sensor)
  
• 2 COM ports (i.e. 4 x GPIO used to drive 2 x UART in ESPHome)
  
• and maybe a relay (to reset / reboot remote devices).
  

This would make it a great option for use in remote sites for monitoring things like solar panels connected to 1 or 2 Victron - SmartSolar Charge Controller (MPPT) via the COM ports, making sure equipment / room temperature and humidty is within tolerances and rebooting if anything freezes up.
Even add some capability to add some CT clamps (including 'small' ones...not just 50A / 100A etc) to monitor loads drawing Power / Energy !

As an observation, having this as a 16 channel version is overkill and in turns leads to the price being too high (USD$200 / AUD$300), at which point it becomes cheaper to just buy a bunch of ESP32-S3 (or the new ESP32-C6 with Thread+Matter+802.11ax - AUD$10ea), a BME680, a relay, CSE7766 etc solder it all up and 3D print a case.
