Allow CONF_updateInterval to be configurable after the container starts #160

Closed dgthomson closed 5 months ago

dgthomson commented 5 months ago

I'd like to be able to change CONF_updateInterval occasionally.

Perhaps this could be done by allowing an MQTT payload to be sent into the container with the number of seconds required.

Yeah, nice feature. Maybe I will take a look at this tomorrow.

This feature is available starting v1.8.24!

Could there be "no update". Example interval 0 could be "no update". This is because it looks that updates uses the 12 V battery. Which is bad in cold weather (-30 C), like what we have had here in Finland.

Maybe the update itself does not use battery much, but it looks that when there are frequent update requests the car does not go into "sleep mode" and that is why it uses about 0.150 kW all the time when temperature is below -10 C. (0.150 kW is what my chargin station shows.)
