  1. Can u pm it to me again ? or send to my email : [email protected]
  2. I have been working on the next iteration of Solar Monitoring High level it will Consist of the following addons: Scraper that gets the solar information and populates it in MQQT I have allready completed a bare bones of this one running under : https://github.com/gdwaterworth/sunsynkmqqt I forked SunsynkV3 and changed it 90% to do what I want Only prerequisite is the MQQT addon Processor which then take the MQQT data and creates topics in MQQT that will then be processed as MQQT discovery and create entities in Home Assistant TBD A MQQT listener that will look at changes coming from topics in HA and then set those topics back on the inverter TBD I have chosen this route to be modular so in the future I can add in modules that talk to various inverters and you just implement the modules needed.
  3. Morning all Just want to get some opinions from those in the industry I have signed an OTP for a property that has solar installed. From everything I can see the inverter is not certified for NRS097-2-1 and does not have a type certification available. It is a Below is an extract from a Ekhurhuleni doc which is attached. Luckily I did include the type certification as a requirement in the OTP and as far as I know a Solar COC cannot be approved for a system not meeting legal requirements. ATM just trying to see how much of an "arsehole" I must be with the sellers. SSEG-General-Information-for-Public-General-1.pdf
  4. Been looking at how to do this whole thing better Forked off the Sunsynkv3 Looking at pulling all the data into MQTT under HA then setting up a config file to create some auto entities via MQTT with the required info. Problem is my Sunsynk is no more so I cant get data Can someone share their plant to mine under [email protected] So Far :
  5. I have to agree on this or if you have to use : GitHub - martinville/solarsynkv3: Integrate your Sunsynk account with Home Assistant for real-time solar energy monitoring. Track power generation, battery storage, and grid usage while enabling smart automations and custom alerts. Optimize energy efficiency, reduce costs, and stay in control with seamless remote access and intuitive dashboards. They took it to where I wanted to, but didnt have the time to invest If I ever got sunsynk again I would go direct. I created something that was needed at the time, but there are far better solutions now Even Solar as a one in all solution I now realise I can live without In a rental. Have access to a small solar install that basically powers lights. Geyser/Stove etc are all on Gas. Keep a 5kw battery pack for work stuff. I can run 3 days on it. Cost was minimal. If I have longish power downs I just charge up the battery pack with the genny. What we realised is if we can cook / shower / work and have lights the rest is ~meh~
  6. Saw the problems earlier. I suspected this was going to be coming for a while. I think addons like mine caused problems for them and this is their way to remove them Sunsynk as a brand with their Crap support is running their brand into the ground
  7. I really dont mind if you fork it :) I just dont have time atm with my other activies to really work on it
  8. I have access to my sunsynk account. Will be enough to check logins etc. Just a matter of finding time to find a way to do the same in node red. Main problem is trying to fnd equiv functions in node-red
  9. Will mull over this. I dont actually have a sunsynk system anymore so will need to setup a vm again WIll need to see if some of teh key functions you use are available or not in node red
  10. If they are prehashing the password instead of sending it in the clear then this addon is going to be dead in the water unless the method and salt they are using can be figured out. I wondered a while back when this was going to happen The orrigional spec actually had a version of this in their design document that was never implemented
  11. I will reload my HA and point it to my old acct and see what it says. Just need a few days to find the time Sunsynk are continually changing stuff in their backend. Just need to figure out what they have done Will do an update to the git repo when I figure it out
  12. Just did a quick login and check. They may have stuffed arround with the headers again . Change to to above
  13. I have unfortunately moved house and will be removing the home assistant on Saturday so my support will have to stop then
  14. ok got mine working . Looks like changes on gzip and some header stuff as well In this Change the variable headers_with_bearer to ( I changed encoding - removed gzip , referrer and origin ) var headers_with_bearer = { "User-Agent": "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:124.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/124.0", "Accept": "application/json", "Accept-Language": "en-US, en; q=0.5", "Accept-Encoding": "deflate", "Content-Type": "application/json;charset=UTF-8", "Authorization": "Bearer " + global.get("SS.Bearer"), "Origin": "https://api.sunsynk.net", "Connection": "keep-alive", "Referer": "https://api.sunsynk.net/", "Sec-Fetch-Dest": "empty", "Sec-Fetch-Mode": "cors", "Sec-Fetch-Site": "same-site", "TE": "trailers" } I may need to make changes on the setting one , but will try work that out later Will update the git repo when I get some time
  15. Ok , looks like the return data is being gzipped . Need to try see why the nodered web function is not ungzipping it
  16. Nothing yet Is the sunksynk.net site working again ? That was broken last time I checked
  17. Think this is something to do with nodered modules.
  18. Will upgrade and have a look. Im litterly moving out my house tomorrow so will lose access to my sunsynk
  19. No, That option is not enabled. I dont have a system to test that on as I dont want to play on my home system with that . Quite frankly I am very hesitant to test anything with settings changes while sunsynk messing round with the 60s vs 5 minute update intervals
  20. What is your Sunsynk Dongle update interval ? 60s or 5 min ? That is normally the cause for flip flopping like this
  21. I had a look at the code and it seems to be VERY early development and very dangerous. I can see a number of pitfalls I have allready encountered when getting data from Sunsynk
