Hi there,

I am trying to read data from a INA3221 sensor and send to Homeassistant via MQTT.

What are my options here as I only see drivers for the INA219 etc but cant see anything for the INA3221.

I did however find this,

> **[GitHub - easybotics/node-red-contrib-easybotics-ina3221: node-red module to...](https://github.com/easybotics/node-red-contrib-easybotics-ina3221)**
>
> node-red module to poll a ina3221. Contribute to easybotics/node-red-contrib-easybotics-ina3221 development by creating an account on GitHub.

Thanks for any help!

You could try installing direct from github

```auto
https://github.com/easybotics/node-red-contrib-easybotics-ina3221

```

NOTE: If you are running node-red as a HA plugin, then it runs under docker (not on directly on the OS) so I am not sure how docker communicates to `i2c` devices.

Also note: that node is over 5y old (so may not work)

there are several other [`i2c nodes`](https://flows.nodered.org/search?term=i2c&type=node) nodes available. Perhaps you could use [node-red-contrib-i2c (node) - Node-RED](https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-i2c) to communicate with the device?
