This keeps my battery topped up between 19:30ish and 22:00ish before it starts discharging making sure I have enough juice lft for the 4am-8am sessions.  My heatpump kicks in at 4am for the morning showers.  

My batteries have max 20% DOD.

Here is mine on 2x7.2 kwh batteries. Enough to run the house for 14 hours 18h00-07h00 including one geyser cycle. Reason I dont discharge to 20% is to cover the occasional 4-8 morning loadshedding, using AC to top up a bit. Also using a loadshedding relay to switch of geyser in the early mornings to save on batteries. My settings are a bit conservative at this stage1BF23D2C-86DE-41F0-A29E-E797E165BC84.thumb.jpeg.76a95c468de9e1d4cb0d6ce7899d7318.jpeg
