FoxESS Community - Owners & Installers Forum

Asking here as this seem to be the most fitting space... I heard FoxESS will be releasing whole house gateway that would sit between a grid and inverter, and in case of power outage, would disconnect grid and maintain inverter/battery supply... I do not seem to be able to find anything related to ...

Hello All...

If I would like to find out if anyone here does have good installer they could recommend to provide Cube stack with installation, where would I place this question?? Would that break any rules??

Dears,

I have the same problem as you mentioned. And I set up the Charge from grid setting for the battery. As soon as the time of charging arrive, my house is disconnected from the grid because it goes over-consuming. I have a contract for 4.5 KW and I assume the battery will try to charge ...

Hello All,

Thank you very much for the comments.

Things that were mentioned in the posts:

1. We are with Octopus on Go Intelligent. We have EV, so charging on the cheap overnight tariff - high consumption devices are already moved over to night cycle (dishwasher, washing machine). Cooking is the ...

Hello All,

just a quick summary. My previously mentioned possible fix was just a coincidence that did not last long... However I have configured the new sensor as per above post. Thank you @Dave Foster. Everything seem to be working exactly as it should be. No more random spikes etc.

@Dave if you ...

Thanks for that. Could that be fixed in any way or is it something I have to leave with for now??

I think I managed to fix this issue... I need to test it for the next 2-3 days to make sure... I will update this post when I know for sure...

Bit of a background... I was playing with Energy dashboard in HA, adding and removing sensors, tweaking entities etc. I got to the point where ALL my ...

Is that what you need??

Hello @Dave,

you are correct. I did post indeed. There are no batteries on the current system. I am in the process of securing funds from my "finance director"...

Where do I get those traces, are those the generation graphs from the modbus entity you're referring to??

Hello All,

I am at the stage of selecting batteries for my system... Cube is what I have in mind - I was considering EP5, however those cannot be stacked in Tesla fashion, as per recent webinar with Will and the guy from FoxESS. Good price but I simply do not have wall long enough to accommodate ...

I have H1 integrated with HA via Waveshare modbus. @Dave Foster helped me setting all this up, as I have made few small mistakes when building the solution... I now have a working integration with a lot of stats in Energy dashboard of HA. HOWEVER, there is a daily random spike of solar generation ...

I'd recommend you download the charge card which lets you see the normal charge periods https://github.com/nathanmarlor/foxess_modbus_charge_period_card



Already working on custom dashboard, mainly for mobile devices...





lol, i've done it a few times and quite close to the integration ...

Who are you Almighty Wizard Dave?? I am on 89 entities now

HA HACS Foxess modbus version is 1.11.1 as per repo version.

When adding the inverter I did the TCP.

Can you go to Settings, Devices & Services find 'Foxess-Modbus' and click on the '1 Device' - what sensors do you see there ?, could you take a screen shot of what's available.

Fixed. Got confused with Wavewshare manual entry suggesting that my wiring was correct. It was not. Thank you very much...

Inverter added, however, I can see only 13 entities... None of them is related to actual solar generation... Tried removing and re-adding the device - same result... Any ideas??

Hello All,

this is my firs one here so please be patient. I own FoxESS Hybrid inverter H1/5Kw (Master 1.65, Slave 1.02, Manager 1.70). I have decided to connect this thing to my Home Assistant instance so did a bit of a research and decided to go Waveshare route. I have purchased one from PiHut ...
