Was thinking that alright but wanted to end at 10% bang on 2am (or close to it)
Funny enough the sunsynk flow card displays the time when it hits 10%
But it's not a value I can automate against, I usually set it by hand until it's close to 2am and it has been very accurate but I want to not do it manually ofc

Hi guys.
Ok so have been setting up my solar installation etc in HA (currently using Solis API data) but am pleased with how far I have come… I'll have load of questions on setting up the local data collection, currently reading up and looking at what is needed to get the data from the logger to HA.
In the mean time I've added all the Tuya devices I have dotted around the house to HA but am struggling with a couple of things?
Have a 30Amp switch on the immersion which integrates fine into HA except it doesn't give a running total of the power used, daily, monthly only power I can see is when it is in use and in the history graph.
On the Tuya APP running totals are shown, current, daily and monthly.
I've managed to extract the .Json data for the switch on HA, but thats about it.
The state is the only total I see and its not changed since the integration.
disabled": false,

"unit_of_measurement": "kWh",

},

"last_reported": "2024-08-13T15:42:26.369583+00:00",
"last_updated": "2024-08-13T15:42:24.685852+00:00"Question, can the "code" be changed to display the correct running total, if so how or is it a non runner?
Thanks

Ok, so I am hopefully a step nearer to getting the inverter data locally rather than from the Solis cloud.
I was trying to figure out how to get the mini pc that HA runs on into the loft next to the inverter so if I have to connect it to the data logger it could be easily done.
Tried a TP link LAN plugin but because the backup socket the solar guys added is not part of the same ring as the other sockets in the house it didn't want to play ball.
I then found an old Sky Wireless device (LAN to wireless) and this seem so have done the trick.
So what would be the simplest way to do this I have started reading various github articles, Solis Modbus and Solarman intergration but am not 100% what is involved.
Also watched the Gordonmarkus video's on YouTube, a lot of which went straight over my head.
This is the data logger that is in the inverter at the moment, I think it is S2-WL-ST so don't think Solarman doable?
Any suggestions/direction would be more than welcome?
Thanks
