Error calculating charge_limit

[macray76]

Errors being generated once target SoC has been set (e.g. first charge window 23:30, initial target SoC set at 23:04, errors start appearing from 23:09 onwards). Predbat stops the current cycle after generating this error...

TypeError: can't multiply sequence by non-int of type 'float'

2023-05-31 23:09:28.553132 WARNING pred_bat: ------------------------------------------------------------

Line 2080 originally has: self.current_charge_limit = inverter.current_charge_limit

I've temporarily fixed it by converting it to a float: self.current_charge_limit = float(inverter.current_charge_limit)

Also possibly linked to this (maybe an error somewhere else or due to my "float" change) a warning on the main appdaemon.log:

2023-06-02 02:44:02.541499 INFO pred_bat: WARN: Return bad value number.givtcp_ce1234g567_target_soc from soc_percent 2023-06-02 02:44:02.543557 INFO pred_bat: Inverter 0 Current SOC is 100.0 % and new target is 29 % 2023-06-02 02:44:02.582685 INFO pred_bat: Inverter 0 Current reserve is 29.0 already at target

The above can't seem to read the inverter's current target SoC so it constantly sets it to the expected 29% target every 5 minutes even though it is already set to 29%.

Please confirm the fix and I will resolve

Not OP but this fixes it for me

Please confirm the fix and I will resolve

Will check this evening as for me the issue only presented itself once the initial target SoC was set by Predbat.

Looks like this issue was fixed. Thank you!
