Hey Corey, It's not a bug per-se, it's more of an odd side effect b/c the entity name + instance number happens to be identical to the device id on your motherboard. In the case of "Power Supply 1 Power Supply 1" sensor name, the entity name is "power supply", instance number "1", and device id "power supply 1".
In the case of "processor 1 fan 5", the entity name is "processor", instance id "1", and device id "fan 5", so the entity sensor name works out nicer. Hmmm, I suppose I could add a special case where if "entity-name + instance" == "device id", then only output one of them. If I code such a thing, would you be able to try out a beta tar.gz?
