  1. Version 1.0.6.3
  2. HI @BritishRacingGreen, I am a mechanical engineer that works for a company that designs and builds mine processing plant and we always have online meetings with the one client's team on a Friday morning and when I visited site in the DRC the other day they said "Oh, you're the Red Bull guy" and not "Oh, you're the engineer". When I asked why they referred to me as "the Red Bull guy", they said it's because I always wear my Red Bull Racing shirt to the meetings so it's the only clothes they ever see me in. Back to the solar system and WatchPower app, all seems to be working now 👍
  3. @BritishRacingGreen, thanks I moved it to PV1 and it work (after a while). However I can only get the Devices tab to work, not yet the Overview tab as shown below. Maybe it will wake up later on. Side note: Based on your username I assume you support Aston Martin with the Formula 1?
  4. I have a Kodak OG 7.2kW inverter and got the WatchPower app to work eventually. Had to use an old phone because the new one's Android software is apparently too new, weird. Anyway, my inverter has 2 PV inputs and the solar panels are currently connected to PV2 but the app does not seem to pick this up. It is showing that the batteries are charging but does not show that the solar panels are connected. The whole reason I got the app was to see how much kW (and kWh) I was generating and using but I can only see my usage at the moment. The app does show the Eskom connection but my inverter is set to OSO (charge batteries from solar only) so it's kind of irrelevant. Does anyone know how to get the app to pick up the PV2 stream from the inverter?
