  1. Hi @JO+e Thank you! I really appreciate this. I will give it a shot as soon as I have a bit of time. I will definitely give you a shout if I get stuck along the way. This does look very promising and opens up a world of possibilities. Issuing commands would just be a bonus. I like that this can also be run in docker if desired. Once again, Thank you!
  2. Would something like this work? https://www.liteglo.co.za/shop/onesto-mc2-20-22943-4-pole-20amp-230v-2xno2xnc-contactor/# It's a contactor that has 2 NO + 2NC. There are 40amp versions as well. My thinking is that eskom gets connected to the NC terminals and the inverter to NO. When you want to switch from eskom to inverter, just apply power to the coil. The eskom circuit is now broken and the inverter side complete. You can control this device with something like a CBI Astute making it wireless.
  3. Hi Guys, I have a Luxpower SNA 5000 installed with a 4.8Kwh Dyness battery. I would like to connect a raspberrypi to the Luxpower so that I can use MQTT for some home automations. It would also be nice to know what the battery temperature is and maybe pull some extra data. The Luxpower app does not give this information. I've already contacted @SolarAssistant and @CenturionSolar.who both don't support the Luxpower. If anyone has done this or knows how to do this, I would greatly appreciate the help and advice. Or if i could be pointed in the right direction?
  4. Hi, I'm looking to do something similar. Interested in what solution you came up with? @LiveBootleg
