Re: Drawing from grid when batteries 80% charged
I think you've hit the nail on the head! I had a 'charge from grid' set the day before yesterday, to top up before the expensive part of our tariff. I turned it off afterwards, but the times are still in the entry fields. Looking at the inverter details it did the same today, drawing from grid when ...
