Calling the Charging Service #107

Closed hjpfourie closed 9 months ago

hjpfourie commented 9 months ago

Calling the service the first time seems to work, but subsequent calls don't seem to work. Then randomly after a period of time, it seems to work again, but only the first service call. Anyone else experienced this?

There is a rate limit at AlphaESS - calls to set charge/discharge only permit one call every ten minutes. (I believe that's the current limit, it had been even lower previously).

Ok, that would explain it. Rather annoying as I have 2 inverters so can't set one after the other in my automation.
