Can you tell us about it first, so I know how you're going to charge the battery under what circumstances... For instance, I would suspect per half hour depending on the price of the input at that time, charging at the lowest prices during the day and making sure there is enough charge in battery for the peak time. That means charging perhaps many times during the day to get the absolute lowest tariffs. Here are my tariffs for today for example... bold are possible charge times... **00:00 - 00:30 14.43p/kWh** 00:30 - 01:00 16.51p/kWh **01:00 - 01:30 15.54p/kWh 01:30 - 02:00 14.68p/kWh 02:00 - 02:30 15.48p/kWh 02:30 - 03:00 14.51p/kWh 03:00 - 03:30 15.56p/kWh 03:30 - 04:00 14.74p/kWh 04:00 - 04:30 15.56p/kWh 04:30 - 05:00 14.7p/kWh 05:00 - 05:30 15.54p/kWh 05:30 - 06:00 15.75p/kWh** 06:00 - 06:30 17.81p/kWh 06:30 - 07:00 21.42p/kWh 07:00 - 07:30 22.34p/kWh 07:30 - 08:00 24.7p/kWh 08:00 - 08:30 19.32p/kWh 08:30 - 09:00 22.68p/kWh 09:00 - 09:30 21.44p/kWh 09:30 - 10:00 20.6p/kWh 10:00 - 10:30 20.16p/kWh 10:30 - 11:00 19.36p/kWh 11:00 - 11:30 18.04p/kWh 11:30 - 12:00 18.14p/kWh 12:00 - 12:30 19.43p/kWh 12:30 - 13:00 17.66p/kWh 13:00 - 13:30 19.38p/kWh 13:30 - 14:00 18.06p/kWh 14:00 - 14:30 20.83p/kWh 14:30 - 15:00 20.29p/kWh 15:00 - 15:30 19.3p/kWh 15:30 - 16:00 22.49p/kWh 16:00 - 16:30 35.55p/kWh 16:30 - 17:00 39.9p/kWh 17:00 - 17:30 38.6p/kWh 17:30 - 18:00 39.38p/kWh 18:00 - 18:30 38.56p/kWh 18:30 - 19:00 35.87p/kWh 19:00 - 19:30 22.05p/kWh 19:30 - 20:00 21.04p/kWh 20:00 - 20:30 21.17p/kWh 20:30 - 21:00 18.92p/kWh 21:00 - 21:30 18.82p/kWh 21:30 - 22:00 17.7p/kWh **22:00 - 22:30 16.8p/kWh 22:30 - 23:00 14.76p/kWh**

Today because my battery level is so low, I topped up the battery during this period too... 12:30 - 13:00 17.66p/kWh 13:00 - 13:30 19.38p/kWh 13:30 - 14:00 18.06p/kWh

@"Gazzagreen"#p635 Sure, no problem. Basically, during your specified window here: [URL=https://i.imgur.com/JIIZARb.png][IMG]https://i.imgur.com/JIIZARbh.png[/IMG][/URL] Wonder Watt will based on those settings determine and pre-select the cheapest number of half hour slots for the next day when they become available. That will then look something like this - the reason they're greyed out is because the time is in the past: [URL=https://i.imgur.com/U5CcBmX.png][IMG]https://i.imgur.com/U5CcBmXh.png[/IMG][/URL] Which means 4 separate charge slots would be sent to the inverter prior to the start time of each of those 4 contiguous blocks. You can also easily select and deselect slots and Save your changes for scheduling. Does that make sense?

@"Gazzagreen"#p636 Yeah, I still have the option to add slots too by simply selecting them and Saving. See: [URL=https://i.imgur.com/SLUlTIR.png][IMG]https://i.imgur.com/SLUlTIRh.png[/IMG][/URL]

Is there anyway we can set the max charging percentage for the Agile Tariff charging settings?

@"TomKatt1993"#p672 Not currently, I guess it would be max percentage configured against the each Charge Window? Your target for 00:00-06:00 might be 80%, but for 11:00-15:30 100%?

Agile Octopus integration

KevinD

I've just opted in to today's Savin Session with Octopus. It will be my first export using the WW scheduler

admin

KevinD Just setup my own schedules for the session later on too.

Pourl

@admin This afternoons sessions are working ok again.

Gazzagreen

admin Remember you must have a minute between off and on times. End 17:00 and then export at 17:01 or it might not work. This bug was pointed out in another post somewhere.

admin

Gazzagreen You're right, this was an issue for Giv.

This might actually be OK for Growatt, but yeah, good point, better to use a min margin either side, will change it now, don't want Growatt failing on my export session!

Gazzagreen

So do you get more money exporting in the saving hour?

admin

Gazzagreen Yep - as the delta will be calculated between what your regular use is in that time slot versus what it will be now.

And because you can export, this is effectively your 'saving'.

Gazzagreen

Ohhh, I better set the export timer then :)

Gazzagreen

Hmmm, export didn't trigger by itself so I had to set it off manual via the app.
Could be the forcast setting of "0"?

admin

Gazzagreen Was your battery SOC at least 80%?

Gazzagreen

Yes 98%

admin

Gazzagreen Nothing in the inverter logs?

Gazzagreen

We'll keep an eye on it for when it starts to get warmer. ATM it doesn't matter, I am just exporting because of the saving session.

Gazzagreen

Logs did say...

But at 17:10 it wasn't exporting.

Perhaps set it up too late?

admin

Gazzagreen Instructions were successfully sent.

Can you show the Giv logs? Did another cmd get sent after that once it was discharging?

Gazzagreen

Where do i get these logs from?

admin

admin

Gazzagreen Looks like on your inverter we may need to explicitly set Eco mode to off as well, judging from the Giv app's instructions for Discharge...

Gazzagreen

I did accidentally put charge on instead of export manually when thumbling with the mobile LOL
