We purchase the single packs from another supplier and therefore do not have comparable conditions. We are currently getting very good purchase prices from this supplier and can offer the single pack at a lower price than the double pack

Yes, you can connect a multiple socket strip to a smart plug. Make sure that the total power of all connected devices does not exceed the maximum load capacity of the smart plug - for comparable products, this is usually 16 A or 3680 W.
Check the information on the rating plate of your smart plug to confirm the exact maximum power. Do not exceed this to avoid overheating and damage.
The power consumption is measured for all connected devices together, not individually.

Eve Energy measures power consumption, but is not designed to measure power in both directions, i.e. both consumption and supply. It shows the current consumption and keeps a log of the energy consumption of the connected device, which is suitable for typical household consumption measurements.
When measuring the feed-in from a balcony power station, it is important to know that many smart adapter plugs, including Eve Energy, do not support bidirectional measurement. This means that they cannot distinguish whether electricity is being drawn or fed in. The Eve Energy is plugged between the balcony power station and the socket and measures the current flow in one direction, which can be used to control consumers, but not for accurate feed-in measurement.
To summarise: The Eve Energy can measure power consumption, but cannot measure the feed-in from the balcony power station in both directions. It is therefore not suitable for control based on feed-in.

To operate an Eve Energy, it makes sense to have some kind of smart home platform. Without this, the connection only works via Bluetooth with a corresponding range restriction. With Apple HomeKit as a SmartHome platform, the WiFi connection is also available. However, this requires a SmartHome centre such as the HomePod or Apple TV 4K. This also enables remote access and automation. Incidentally, the Eve app for Bluetooth control is only available for iOS.
The latest version of Eve Energy is Matter compatible and can therefore also be used for most smart home platforms. However, the Eve Energy in Matter use only supports the Thread network (not WiFi). This means that you need a Thread Border Router (e.g. Apple HomePod, Apple TV 4K) or something equivalent from the Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, etc. world.
A compatible control centre is required: https://www.evehome.com/de...
It's a good price from Apple. It wasn't that low back then. I bought a 3-pack at the time for a similarly good price.

You absolutely need Apple TV or HomePod. But HomePod is quite favourably priced.
You need a hub that is suitable for your platform. Consult the EVE website for hubs compatible with Eve accessories:

I use Homey for home automation. The Eve Energy works perfectly via Matter, but currently without power consumption measurement, which will be added when the Matter specifications are updated. On a positive note, the design means that three Eve Energy can be plugged into a triple socket, which doesn't work with the Philips and Tradfry.

My Eve doesn't beep. But at 66 years old, I can't hear everything either :( Question: does it always beep, or only under load? And if only under load: with different loads or just one specific load?
If in doubt, complain as a warranty case and ask for an exchange.

yes, is visible in Home and can be switched on and off from Home

The Eve Energy - CH (Matter) (Type 13) socket from Eve Systems does not support dimming via Apple Home or Siri. It can only control the power supply with on/off functions.
