Thank you both for the responses.
From an outsider point of view, it seems you are victims of your own success.
Thanks for creating the archived product category it will be very useful… hope you add all the old products there 
I’d like to make one final point on the older products. You are discontinuing things with no replacement… emonEVSE is a prime example. You point to openEVSE, but a lot of people want a prebuilt, working device. When emonEVSE was launched it was the only 22kW 3phase charger on the market that could do solar divert. It was also (and still is) the only one that would fit with my existent emon* ecosystem.
And this is the point. You have created a great ecosystem of products that all work with each other, are customisable and create stickiness to your business. To choose only to focus on a few new products I think will hurt you in the long run and having a smaller selection of things you can sell ultimately less profitable. What’s the point of an emonpi if there is nothing else it can talk to ? Sure it can monitor electricity consumption, but so can a smart meter. Yes its got 12 channels… I can imagine the market being small for a stand alone device…
But if you have an ecosystem that can charge my car (emonpi - using solar divert), monitor my heat pump (emontx + a self built emonHP system & m-bus hat (before you started offering the kit) ), monitor my room temperatures (emonTHs), control my underfloor heating (3 ch relay + thermostat) and display useful data (emonGLCD + emoncms dashboards) then you are onto something.
When I look at the shop and see only a small handful of products it doesn’t seem you are taking advantage of what you have built over the years.
Of course it costs money to manufacture and stock these things, and the more products you have the more people you need to do it, and cost increases. I can’t imagine how long it takes to assemble an emonEVSE or put together an emonHP bundle. Much as I’ll get flack for saying this, when you’ve created a product, done some initial production runs in Wales, would it not be cost effective to get manufacturing done abroad ? Then you guys could concentrate on the fun stuff, new products, growing the HP monitoring side of your business etc.
I don’t envy your position and don’t have the answers… I just find it surprising good, successful, useful products that make up the emon* ecosystem no longer available and that’s a shame. Not that I personally would purchase them (I have already !), but I would hope others would. My neighbours look with envy at my emonEVSE as I slurp the free godjuice from PV and the same with hp monitoring (a group of ten houses built together all have heatpumps and around 6 EV owners). To be clear I’m not talking about products that evolve like emonpi/tx etc.
Again it’s just my 2p and thank you listening - that alone makes OEM a very special organisation, hugely appreciated by customers.
