@Peter_Kawa , Looks good. The timers load the Homey, do you have another solution? Can you use a trigger instead?

Arie, this is a long shot I think, but I was wondering if the AVD’s might be a good way to manage the state, and to control, a home solar system. All the control levers are available to control solar output, charge, discharge, buy, sell etc. But the real difficulty is tracking the status of the devi…

Hi Arie, quick question (or maybe suggestion) for advanced devices.
