Hi S-Woodford, I've just found this repository. This isn't an issue, but you don't have a "Discussions" tab yet! Thanks, your code has shown me the correct format for the URL. Do you have an East/West setup for your solar panels? Did yo mean to include your real API key?

Hi, HamishThanks very much for your message, and for mentioning the API key. I did mean to remove it, but forgot, so the reminder is very welcome. I’ll remove it tomorrow when I have access to the file. I’ll also add a ‘discussions’ tab, even though I’m not really sure what it’s for & why it wasn’t created when I set up the account.I’m glad that ‘my’ code was useful. I say ‘my’ code because I’ve basically stolen almost all of it from others on GitHub. I’m new to all of this, but it seems as though that’s how it’s supposed to work…As for our solar set-up, we have 10 panels facing south south-east and a further 12 facing west south-west. It has worked out really well for us, giving pretty consistent generation for much of the day here in the UK.If you have any suggestions, or can help to make the code work properly, I’d be very grateful.Thanks again & best regardsSpenceSent from my iPhone - please excuse brevity or spelling errors.On 11 Mar 2023, at 18:42, Hamish West @.***> wrote: Hi S-Woodford, I've just found this repository.

Hi again, Thanks for the long reply! It's not "stolen", it's "built-upon", just like most of mine. I'm using Node.JS to integrate all my sensors. This particular bit is to use SolCast to see if there will be enough solar before 8am to heat the hot water, or whether the boiler is needed. Battery storage is up later this year, hopefully.
