Hey 

Wonder if anyone can help here? I just installed a new Sunsynk 8kw with pylontech Up5000 batteries. With my last inverter I was able to see how long I had on battery discharge till I hit a certain percentage, mine was 20%. This is a nice feature to see how much battery life you still have at the current discharge rate.

I don't see anything similar on the Sunsynk app or inverter? When the battery is discharging you have no idea how long you have till the battery turns off at 20% SOC.

If you have your inverter connected to Home Assistant, you could do it with Grafana.

Would probably make sense to use an average power usage over the last say 15 minutes rather than a current power usage, otherwise the time left would be jumping all over the place. 

You will just need to tell it what the capacity of your battery is and it would be able to do the calculations for you. 

Available kw/hr capacity / power usage = time left in hrs

10kw/hr available capacity /  2kw constant load would give you 5hrs available
