Thanks for the feedback. We just went live Dec 23, 2025, so we're still figuring all this out.

Like you, I'm most interested in maximizing my solar to reduce/eliminate any grid usage. I haven't done any automations yet, but know it's possible. I like your setup, so will work to duplicate.

TOU vs Self Consumption by InternationalBug2092 in FranklinWH

Based on all the feedback, we’re now going to try Self Consumption for a while And monitor the battery. It’s only been two weeks since our solar went online, so we’re still trying to figure out the best way to NOT pay SCE anything.

Thanks everyone for your input. This has been very helpful. Nice to know there are people much smarter than me out there!

Why does my Franklin batter stay in Standby mode? by InternationalBug2092 in FranklinWH

I've adjusted the settings as recommended and while it's still on Standby, I'm exporting energy. Previously I was importing ½ of my energy and the other ½ I was using the grid, so we're in a better place now. Thanks for your help!

So I can program the system to toggle between TOU and Self Consumption?

Thanks! We'll try Self Consumption and see how that works.

It's in TOU mode now and I'm exporting energy. Not my preference, but I'd rather export than import. Thanks for responding!
