I have been using pvoutput for several years for uploading my solar. I just want to bring this data back into Homey. Would love to test this app. ---

Do you maybe have a time limit setup? If so wait till tomorrow when the sun is shining 🌻 If it doesnt work by then pls send an app diagnostics report. ---

The kWh value needs to be sent as Wh, Robin 😬 So I adjust it temporarily like this: ![1000046571](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/a/2/a211ab5dc7d82b1bc15fb411f615372d8400deeb.jpeg) (The unit `KWh` should be `kWh` btw 😘) My energy values should be a 1000 times higher as you can see: ![1000046574](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/c/8/c89958376e280570a922945ca1983842ba4dd17f.png) While almost all Energy values are stored in kWh format, can you add a ‘times 1000’ calculation to that input field? Like, 3.41 kWh then gets sent to PVO as 3410 Wh Oh and I completely missed the max once per minute upload limit. Maybe it’s nice to also mention the upload limit @ app store and other places? Thanks!! ---

Thx 4 the feedback Peter! Will be done in a next test release. Btw: I created a trigger card that uploads at the right moment and not too often. 😉 ---

Even better! Didn’t notice that yet ☺ So, at first I started with a “When solar power is changed” card and got angry messages 🤣 With your time based trigger, I added a “And solar power is above 0” card, to prevent useless nightly updates for my solar only data. ---

Hi Peter, im new to pvoutput myself and I think I only just found out that all energy readings (kWh) are only for today, and not cumulative. Can you confirm this? ---

Hi Robin, It expects daily energy yield values in Watthours. Here’s my recent figures, fed with daily energy yield values: ![1000000742](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/f/7/f7c0c964dea1ffbeef22932875d584b055a2d615.png) This is the setup page, which shows it expects daily yield in Watthours: ![image8](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/a/0/a0650229c1dc7fd692cf051b4f3377b66bfd37a1.png) Does it make sense, Robin? ---

V1.0.1 is ready for testing: [PVOutput | Homey](https://homey.app/a/org.pvoutput/test/) - Implemented 2 minute rate limit for uploading via flow. - Only upload when values have changed. - Fixed wH vs kWh values. If all is well, this version will be released as stable in the Homey app store. ---

Hi Robin, There is another kWh issue with the app. I use the app to get my generated amount of energy from pvoutput to feed my Homey. ![1000007294](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/0/2/027a98a04134830d98aa74fdc37c46741cfd6808.jpeg) It multiple the kWh amount with a 1000. So I end up with 16000 kWh for a day instead of 16 kWh. The scale in the diagram is correct, but reported amount is not. ---
