I have a 8kw Sunsynk inverter and 5.3kwh battery with 5.4kw panels
I use the Sunsynk app on my mobile and laptop
Is there any other app that I can use for the data of my system, Sunsynk is rather basic?

Yes, you can use Home Assistant. Search on the forum you will get a lot of hits for "how to"

@AndreGreyling If you want almost realtime data then Raspberry pi5 + Home Assistant works quite nicely if you have a bit of patience to learn how to set it up.
There are tons of guides and even here on this forum there are many users who could advise or assist if you have issues.

Thanks for all the info, will have a look!👌

Another good option which is "easier" than Home Assistant (I have both), is Solar Assistant also runs on a raspberry pi and gives a lot of control and real time info of your system.

I would second the HA + Kellerza method. Near instant readings and if you can depending on your batteries pull those in as well to HA from its BMS system.

You will be able to monitor much more in detail and setup so many custom notifications. It is a bit of work but worth the time and effort.

And yes I'm aware to the 2 issues on my batteries and waiting on the manufacture/installer regarding repairs/warranty.
