My other half has just run a bath, so the heat pump has kicked in and started re-filling the hot water tank. The car is charging at the same time, and most of it is being covered by the sun. We’re pulling only 700w from the grid.
Renewables are amazing.
Hey #Berlin airport, the #EV chargers at the long stay parking don't need to be 22 kW. A cheapest 3.6 kW is fine, really, the car is going to be parked at least for a day anyway.
Oh, you're charging penalty fees for charging longer than 4h? On the long term airport parking? Well I wonder why no one is using the fancy chargers then. 🤦🏻
The Empire will never let go of those blokes, will it.
Hyde Park, koło Serpentine. Chyba jeszcze bardziej przerażający widok.
Green Park, centrum Londynu, koło pałacu Buckingham. Nigdy nie widziałem angielskich trawników w takim stanie.
Misie fedisie, jakieś rekomendacje rolet wewnętrznych (do okna pionowego ) i markiz zewnętrznych (do dachowego) działających z #HomeAssistant?
Używa ktoś może ładowarki dwukierunkowej #Sigen #Sigenergy 25kW #EV DC? Tej w ofercie #Pstryk? Interesują mnie praktyczne doświadczenia z używania jej w trybie, no właśnie, dwukierunkowym. Strona producenta ma taką tabelkę z testowanymi samochodami, ale brak konkretnej specyfikacji. #elektromobilność
As January ends, the #photovoltaic panels are starting to provide some actual useful output again. Not enough by far to offset the #heatpump consumption, but enough that the January bill will be noticeably lower than December one.
Ah, there's #EV charging overnight included in this as well - about 40 kWh worth of juice.
Arriving in Berlin Haupbahnhof. Train was on time until Ostabahnhof, of course it is delayed now. Wondering if I'll make my connection.
There's no such thing as virtue signalling. There are no good people.
There are only good deeds and bad ones.
Only you and your gran care why you did something. What matters is how it affects others.
It has been three years. The western companies still doing business in russia should be nationalized and not allowed to continue.

#ABRP 6.0 came out and it finally brings a magical feature: support from #AndroidAuto CarInfo API. All the cars that support it will automatically get live battery data in ABRP, just by running it as the navigation app through Android Auto. It's quite amazing, it's a shame though my #EV6 does not support this :neocat_sad:
So does anyone have an #EV supporting this, can give it a go and share impressions?

A few tries and the support has got the configuration working. When the sun shines, the charger automatically follows the available free PV power. First long charging session: 22 kWh charged into the #EV from the panels.
I met a starling today who did a really good imitation of a common buzzard.
Listen to this! 🎶
W karmniku trzy wiewiórki kłócą się o miejsce.
Kolejny tydzień przedwiośnia, zmiany w ogródku. Przekwitły już fioletowe krokusy, za to pojawiły się białe. Jest też #zawilec grecki. W karmniku trzy wiewiórki kłócą się o miejsce. A w odległym kącie, w stosie zeszłorocznych liści, najpierw myślałem, że ktoś połamane czerwone tworzywo wyrzucił. To grzyb, czarka szkarłatna, piękne, jaskrawe owocniki o niezwykłym kształcie.

I changed the text displayed while the charger is waiting for a car to be connected - there's a 6 character wide dot matrix display and it annoyed me that the original text was scrolling.
The charger restarted to apply the change. It did not reconnect to WiFi.
Ugh.
Comparing the data in #SolarEdge web dashboard and imported into #HomeAssistant ; there's some differences but data matches to 3% or so.
Initial findings from the installation of #SolarEdge #EV Charger:
- it is actually a KEBA KeContact P30 device
- there's off-the-shelf accessories available (such as mounting posts) once you know the real name
- the initial connection setup is *very* fiddly, until you get it to connect to Wi-Fi
- seriously, do yourself a favour and connect it via Ethernet, you have to run a 32A rated 3 phase cable to it anyway
- #PV power following works, however: minimum charging current is 6A per phase, so 4.14 kW on a 3-phase connection
- there's an optional KeContact S10 phase-switcher device that allows the charger to switch between 3-phase and 1-phase operation modes, this allow 1-phase charging with power as low as 1.38 kW
- I'm reasonably sure this can be installed afterwards too, if I find the 3-phase only operation not toggling on often enough with my PV system
- once enabled, it integrates into the SolarEdge app nicely enough
- I've also got it exporting data into #HomeAssistant, still need to verify data correctness
