Energy usage between end of charging via solar and end of automation due to sunset #6
Comments
Nice charts you have there! Not sure about the charger consumption when it is supplying 0 amps, but I doubt it is using up 400W. I suspect you might have other appliances on at the time that you might not be aware of? When charging from solar panels, please note there is a hard coded skew setting as commented in the script. This is to allow slight fluctuation around 0 net grid power.

Hi, I'll try to test it again in the future, however there isn't that much nice weather coming up to test it with... To be continued :) |
I'm against turning off the charger for the following reasons,
|
Ok. Would there be a way to set the minimum amps at 1 or 2 then? |
Added option to set the minimum charge current. The default is 0A, but you can set it to a different number when setting up the Blueprint. Please give it a try. |
Thanks man! Installed it and it works for now. Will have to wait for tonight to see if it stays at 1A. :) |
Very weird thing today: When I was making dinner this evening, the automation went from 0A to 5A when I was already pulling about 2kW from the grid. Therefore I had a 15min peak of 1150w higher than it should have been (which is "fined" here in Belgium since the beginning of this year).
It happened exactly at the time that the charging switch should have been turned off by the script due to the sunset trigger. |
Hi,
Today was a flawless day! So thanks again for this script!
However yesterday and today I noticed that while I wasn't charging (0 amps) there was still about 400w of unexplainable usage that I normally never have.
So before I start measuring that specific plug I'd like to ask that there's some kind of idle usage between the end of the solar charge and the end of the automation 30min before sunset?
Screenshots below:
Here you can see that I'm consuming 843w. At this point the tesla was charging at 0 amps, so not charging.

This was after the script ended. I went back to my normal idle use of around 400-450w (you can also see it clearly in the graph between midnight and 6 in the morning.

It's obviously not that much of energy that's been wasted but if it can be avoided it's always better :)
