Hi everyone. New Install coming soon. Would like some newbie Help.
Hey everyone

My system is partially installed. There is a delay getting the solar panels, so its being finished in 2 weeks.
I am trying to get Home assistant set up in advance of the system going live.
I have added the FOXESS Modbus integration, and am just waiting for my waveshare adapter prior to running the connection wizard.
I've heard that Predbat is good as once set up it will maximise revenue and also learn my energy habits.
What are peoples experiences? Is this a good idea.?
Details of my system below.
Cheers
Rich.

Hello Rich,

I am envious of your system :mrgreen:


I hear you are with IOG and of course are in process of setting up a HA Green. Have you added automation yet to grab the random IOG slots and use these to charge battery?

This automation (if that sensor is still available) will force charge battery for every cheap IOG slot it finds (so works overnight also)
