Power flow confused #83

First let me thank you for your amazing work. I'm currently using 2 of your addons.

The algo does not seem to be able to figure out where the energy is flowing though from the numbers, is't quite clear. Is it because the "home" values are not supposed to go negative? There's no off-grid mode yet?

By default negative numbers for grid and battery indicate that power is being sent to those entities. So negative for battery would mean that the battery is charging.

However, not everyone's systems behave that way. The easiest way to resolve this is to use the inverted_entities option to list your inverted entities as seen in this example.

Thanks for the help @ulic75. Inverting the battery values worked. You can close or remove this non-issue.
