force charge fluctuations
Posted: Mon Dec 04, 2023 5:03 pm
Noticed an oddity with the Force Charge option over the last few days.
Normally with the battery run down to 20%, it started charging at max inverter ( 5Kw) and stayed
there until its done.
Recently however the first hour approx is only charging at 3Kw , and then it jumps up to 5Kw for the next 2 hrs.
Which is a nuisance as it no longer completely charges during the Octopus Flux cheap 2-5 am window !
Is this something to do with the temperature of the batteries ?
Or is it because the missus has started running appliances at 2am ?
