Option to display output in W

[Cardo1]

Hi there,

Thanks for making this plugin. I’m using this together with a plugin for my SolaX PV system. The SolaX plugin displays the output in W, rather than kW, which I personally prefer. Would it be possible to have an option to display the output from this plugin in W, rather than kW?

Thanks.

Unfortunately, this is a limitation in the way that Apple's homeKit represents a LUX value over 10,000 -- It just rounds the value up to the next thousand. After 100,000 it rounds to just the hundred thousands (so 138,432 = 100,000).

Are you looking for an option for just the current production to be displayed in W/kW? Or other production intervals as week (day, month, year...)?

Hi. Thanks for the response. Personally, I was after the option to display in W just for the current production, as this will (sadly) never be anywhere near 10,000!

Try version 0.2.0.

It will require changing the config.json file (or deleting the section in there for the plugin, and then re-adding it through the Config-UI-X).

Excellent, thanks. I’m assuming it’s working, though will need to wait for daylight to confirm!

One, thing, now that it’s dark, it’s showing “0.0001 lux”. I gather that’s how it’s adjusting from kW to W?

Hi. Not sure what I’m doing wrong but I can’t get the new version to work. As far as I can see the config file is correct, I want it to show current today and total as before but it’s only showing current (in watts) in HomeKit. (In

eve or Home)

Just adding, it does appear to be fetching the correct info

Try v. 0.2.1. I did a little regression testing to make sure. It should be fine now.

That’s working now thanks
