How can we help you today?
Divert only during particular periods of the day?
Not sure if you can achieve it solely through the OpenEVSE, but I have Home Assistant controlling the OpenEVSE regarding Eco and Fast Charge, whilst monitoring the production from solar and state of the powerwall.
Any chance you could describe the process you used to integrate HA with OpenEVSE? I found a page at HA with instructions for integrating, but they must be quite dated as none of the instructions seem to work. I.m running 8.2.2 and v5.1.0_modified . Thanks
Bill, probably easiest way is to post some of my automations to give you an idea then you can ask any more questions, just replace the device_id with your id. Not sure how this is going to format my YAML :-) Cheers Alastair
