  6. Hi All Has anyone managed to integrate their heatpump into HA? i have an alliance hotwater HP, that has a basic controller with only 3 timer settings. I need a controller that is able to connect and integrate into smart home, to manage it better. I called Alliance but they dont make a smart version of this controller for hot water heatpumps. So just checking if anyone has managed to or knows how to get around this... regards
  7. correct
  8. On the Sonoff's you can set the default "Power-On State". Meaning if u set it to on, and it looses power, when power is restored it be in the ON position. The Sonoff's store the schedules onboard the device memory, so even with no internet it will work
  9. No, you dont need another BMS, the AM2 has a BMS called PaceBMS. the PaceBMS add-on i mentioned above is software that can read the PaceBMS in the AM2. contact number?
  10. Home assistant is free software PaceBMS is also free software cable can be bought from the solarassistant online shop - https://solar-assistant.io/shop/products/pace_rs232 once setup, plug the battery cable into the master AM2 and it will be able to read all AM2's connected...
  11. I use Home Assistant with the PACEBMS add-on and the hubble am2 cable. I now can monitor all the sensors and cell voltages on my AM2's
  12. it has a drain pipe as well as the tank, so i dont use the tank

  15. i recently got this one. Defy Tumble Dryer, thats A++ rated..tested its consumption over the last few weeks and it uses on average 1.5Kw per cycle https://www.hirschs.co.za/defy-9kg-heat-pump-dryer-dtd323
  16. same here, seeing a 2cycle increase per day across all my AM2's
  17. put a SSL certificate on HA, enable 2FA and do port forwarding on tor router so u can access it from anywhere..
  18. have u thought about getting them 3d printed? A good 3d print store should be able to scan an example and print it for u.
  19. i use an Alliance 7.2kW heat pump, to heat a 200L geyser. Consumes about 2.2kW or around 10amps when running. Pretty much as Scorp007 says, in summer its quick to heat the geyser, winter a little longer, but still way more efficient than an element
