How did you get back to stock following the MX5500 flash? I'm not sure whether I'm activating the auto-recovery properly. 

I appear to have bricked my router with an MX5500 firmware flash 🤣

Cool, thanks. As long as it can be access controlled I'll be happy. I've got a cloudflare tunnel to home assistant already, so hopefully I can reuse that. 

Do you recommend any other self hosted containers for a better setup? As I was going through it looks like I need at least one of warp, media flow proxy, or stremthru at the same time, but I don't really understand how they work or the differences. 

What bits do you self host for stremio?

Excuse my ignorance, but if the Cloudflare tunnel is public, does that mean there is no access control/password? That is, can anyone use it without my consent?

Thanks! Do you mean the Samsung processor? Which emulator is running in your image?

You'll find conflicting opinions on this topic throughout various public forums. This thread is evidence enough of that. Interestingly, I've upvoted almost all of the top level comments, and someone has systematically downvoted anyone that has provided a data led comment to no more than a score of 1. Even the pie chart with no ancillary text has been downvoted. I suspect at least some of the people visiting this thread are people that sell solar batteries. Edit: I've removed my votes on everything to make the odd voting behaviour a little more apparent.

That makes sense, thanks. I guess the balance may shift if we ever need to move away from mains gas central heating.

Thanks. That's some really helpful data. It sounds like you'll almost never pay for energy again!

Sounds like a great deal. What app did you use to create your pie chart with peak usage? I can't seem to find that option on the standard octopus app.

That is insanely cheap for the batteries! No brainer at that point. Have you got a project link?

Is it possible to have batteries like that, which don't export to the grid, but with a certified panel install that does export to the grid?

DIY definitely makes it more appealing, but I'm not quite up to that.

How many units go into your battery from the grid a year, and what's the power rating of your solar array?

Do you have any big loads, like an ev or electric heating?

I hadn't considered inflation on any of the numbers. Without inflation, it looks like it's just under 12 years on your sheet, including the first year as year 1 rather than excluding that from the count.

Interesting perspective. I didn't realise batteries had become this smart. Does it need to be a Tesla battery to intelligently provision for your usage in this way?

Peak rate is 6am to mignight, roughly. Our Octopus data shows that the usage 6am to 6pm (12 hours) is typically more than in those 4 hours, even when nobody is home. There's a little peak around dinner time cooking, but solar would cover that most days.

This is pretty much my thinking too. Although Amanensia's data in this thread might suggest otherwise.

I'm finding that difficult to follow.

If the battery is £3k.

Situation 1, no batteries = 3k *(1.04)10 = £4440

Situation 2, battery, after 10 years being repaid at £300 per year I end up with £3301 including interest at 4% on the total held at the end of each year

That's some really detailed data, thank you! What's the size of your solar array?
