To confirm do you want to pull the firmware from the nodemcu, or just utilise their API? It might be easier to just write some HA integration which directly talks to the SunSynk cloud APIs to pull the data. For the SynSynk API see below. Login and obtain bearer token https://pv.inteless.com/oauth/token POST /oauth/token HTTP/2 Host: pv.inteless.com Content-Length: 103 Accept: application/json Content-Type: application/json;charset=UTF-8 Sec-Ch-Ua-Mobile: ?0 User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/99.0.4844.74 Safari/537.36 Origin: https://sunsynk.net Referer: https://sunsynk.net/ Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate Accept-Language: en-GB,en-US;q=0.9,en;q=0.8 {"username":"XXXXXX","password":"XXXXXX","grant_type":"password","client_id":"csp-web"} Some endpoints api/v1/plants api/v1/plant/energy/XXXX/flow api/v1/inverters api/v1/inverter/XXXX/realtime/output api/v1/inverter/XXXX/realtime/input api/v1/inverter/battery/XXXXX/realtime Then you can utilise the bearer token to extract data from the APIs.

If you do ever do some integration in HACS please share. I've not gone so far as to actually write something, but should be easy.

Thanks, they sent me quote with the remainder of their details. The company, nor the registration details exist on CIPC. So definitely fraud.

Same on my side, also in Cape Town. Its a real struggle to find reputable solar companies. Also not sure if all the online stores are reliable.

Has anyone dealt with the business called NextGenSolar? https://www.nextgensolar.co.za/

I recently acquired some of the the rechargeable loadshedding down-lights. I've installed them in my bathroom but now my extractor fan is dead. When I tried installing the lights in the room leading to the bathroom, the lights never turned off. It seems i might have a potential wiring issue with my downlights. Is this something common? Should I get an electrician out or is it something common with these lights?
