+Library Design & Modules
+========================
+
+This page aims to provide some details on the design and internals of this library.
+You might be interested in this if you want to improve this library,
+or if you are just looking to access some information that is not currently exposed.

+
+Update Cycle
+************
+
+When :meth:`~kasa.SmartDevice.update()` is called,
+the library constructs a query to send to the device based on :ref:`supported modules <modules>`.
+Internally, each module defines :meth:`~kasa.modules.Module.query()` to describe what they want query during the update.
+
+The returned data is cached internally to avoid I/O on property accesses.
+All properties defined both in the device class and in the module classes follow this principle.
+
+While the properties are designed to provide a nice API to use for common use cases,
+you may sometimes want to access the raw, cached data as returned by the device.
+This can be done using the :attr:`~kasa.SmartDevice.internal_state` property.
+
+.. _modules:
+
+Modules
+*******
+
+The functionality provided by all :class:`~kasa.SmartDevice` instances is (mostly) done inside separate modules.
+While the individual device-type specific classes provide an easy access for the most import features,
+you can also access individual modules through :attr:`kasa.SmartDevice.modules`.
+You can get the list of supported modules for a given device instance using :attr:`~kasa.SmartDevice.supported_modules`.
+
+.. note::
+
+    If you only need some module-specific information,
+    you can call the wanted method on the module to avoid using :meth:`~kasa.SmartDevice.update`.

 Common API
-======================
+==========
 
 The basic functionalities of all supported devices are accessible using the common :class:`SmartDevice` base class.
 
-The property accesses use the data obtained before by awaiting :func:`update()`.
+The property accesses use the data obtained before by awaiting :func:`SmartDevice.update()`.
 The values are cached until the next update call. In practice this means that property accesses do no I/O and are dependent, while I/O producing methods need to be awaited.
+See :ref:`library_design` for more detailed information.
+
+.. note::
+    The device instances share the communication socket in background to optimize I/O accesses.
+    This means that you need to use the same event loop for subsequent requests.
+    The library gives a warning ("Detected protocol reuse between different event loop") to hint if you are accessing the device incorrectly.
 
-Methods changing the state of the device do not invalidate the cache (i.e., there is no implicit `update()`).
+Methods changing the state of the device do not invalidate the cache (i.e., there is no implicit :func:`SmartDevice.update()` call made by the library).
 You can assume that the operation has succeeded if no exception is raised.
 These methods will return the device response, which can be useful for some use cases.

+
+Energy Consumption and Usage Statistics
+***************************************
+
+.. note::
+    In order to use the helper methods to calculate the statistics correctly, your devices need to have correct time set.
+    The devices use NTP and public servers from `NTP Pool Project <https://www.ntppool.org/>`_ to synchronize their time.
+
+Energy Consumption
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The availability of energy consumption sensors depend on the device.
+While most of the bulbs support it, only specific switches (e.g., HS110) or strips (e.g., HS300) support it.
+You can use :attr:`~SmartDevice.has_emeter` to check for the availability.
+
+
+Usage statistics
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+You can use :attr:`~SmartDevice.on_since` to query for the time the device has been turned on.
+Some devices also support reporting the usage statistics on daily or monthly basis.
+You can access this information using through the usage module (:class:`kasa.modules.Usage`):
+
+.. code-block:: python
 
-* :class:`SmartPlug`
-* :class:`SmartBulb`
-* :class:`SmartStrip`
-* :class:`SmartDimmer`
-* :class:`SmartLightStrip`
+    dev = SmartPlug("127.0.0.1")
+    usage = dev.modules["usage"]
+    print(f"Minutes on this month: {usage.usage_this_month}")
+    print(f"Minutes on today: {usage.usage_today}")
