Thanks for the adjustments. However, it does not update the “Energy consumption”. I use the “daily yield” of the homewizardP1 meter for this. See picture. ![Scherm­afbeelding 2025-05-19 om 08.43.06](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/6/0/601f086c8552d407a8402bcc313f1e58cd07b042.png) ---

So, today, I finally found time to actually update the flow. Is this a normal thing to expect now? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/9/6/9645de619e842ebcea96a8eb2951fa3eeb684221.png) Not sure why that ‘Actual’ value fluctuates between a few K and 0. ---

It looks simular to what I have. So I guess it is normal. It can take a day to get the average values right. Are you using the special triggercard or are you triggering on a time card? ---

Looks good. The kWh used (today) is a mystery for me still. I dont know what it is for and how it shows on [pvoutput.org](http://pvoutput.org) You could try leaving it out of the flow ---

I guess it will behave after a while. I use the same flow as you do. No clue where averages of 7000W+ come from though 😂 My all time max output was 5800W 😏 ![1000049147](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/4/8/481fd28eaebeb87aa700a46666240aeed078e503.jpeg) ---

The _Average_ figure varies because the _Energy_ is being incremented in 300/300/400Wh lumps rather than “smoothly”. You will note that _Average_ is zero when _Energy_ is unchanged from the previous data submission. I had a similar experience - but even more exaggerated - my inverter only reports _Energy_ in 1kWh lumps - so I would see lots of rows with _Average = 0_. Then suddenly one row with _Average_ = 12000W. Uploads are at 5 minute intervals; there are 12 intervals in an hour so a 5 minute jump of 1kWh is an _Average_ power of 12000W. > **Lumpy data in the PVOutput data table…** > > ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/8/5/85cfcdca027f04a9406da128ea723e63a1e92745.png) To smooth things out, I have reverse-engineered my very lumpy _Energy_ readings into a smoother curve by accumulating the _Power_ over time. I use a virtual device and upload the data using its capability values. If I compare lumpy and smooth _Energy_ the two curves look very similar. And now my data in PVOutput is nice and smooth… > **Here’s the flow that I use to smooth the Energy…** > > ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/8/f/8fceb2c6a089781949db9862e6f2746031093383.png) > **And here are the insights comparing lumpy and smooth Energy.** > > ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/f/4/f45b3dcfcd172b3647b5740da439f19c9d5ba0d0.png) ---

Nice simple app that supports the PV Output site - thanks Robin G. I, too, would advocate for the ability to upload _Export_ values, alongside _Import_ that I note is available from the API document. Agree that separating the “simple” use case from the more complex on separate flow cards is a good way to proceed. ---

For some reason I don’t get the result I want. I’ve an Homewizard 3f kWh-meter. In general you’ll get the input from the Dongle. Is this maybe the reason it doesn’t work? Did you guys some tests with a separate kWh-meter? Or is it just a setting I don’t know? Nb, my set is max 2000 Watt on the West. ![IMG_2199](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/f/5/f543134edced744dde494d504dd8d7152f401d71.jpeg) ---

I tried this nice app. When create an output with ‘just’ integer values, some of the values in the card are indeed uploaded: - Energy produktie = 20 kWh - Energy verbruik = 21 kWh - Dagelijks = Ja - Vermogen = 22 W → Power 22W - Voltage = 23 V → Voltage 23.0V - Temper. = 24 C → Temper. 24.0C But when I add value from a ‘tag’, and save and reopen the card, Homey returns an error ‘Invalid value for argument &’ for each tag. - Energy produktie = not filled, since not uploaded - Energy verbruik = not filled, since not uploaded - Dagelijks = Ja - Vermogen = from a ‘Zonnepanelen’/‘Solar Panels’ app, Growatt PV - Voltage = from a randomly available plug with voltage meter - Temper. = from ‘Weather’ (How) can I see what values are passed, and why they are invalid? ---

He probably referred to the Homewizard Dutch version topic Usually links to app topics are mentioned on the app page at the homey.app store. ---

Major new app version 2.0.0 is ready for testing > **[PVOutput | Homey](https://homey.app/en-us/app/org.pvoutput/PVOutput/test/)** > > Sharing and comparing PV output data - Added new flow: Upload net export/import power - Added new flow: Upload end-of-day output summary - Added battery and message fields to PV data upload - Added extended data (v7-v12) readout - Flow fields now accept tags - Fixed several upload bugs - Translated to 13 languages Lots of fields were added to the upload flows. The extended data is only available for donor accounts. I have not been able to test that myself. Please provide feedback if you find any issues. ---
