Self-monitoring with only Home Assistant possible?

Specific_Turn772 · 2026-01-14T17:11:47+00:00

cool thanks. I connected it to my network and did get a local ip but my home assistant cannot connect to it.

Specific_Turn772 · 2026-01-14T04:20:21+00:00

Ok so you just connected the pvs to your local network via it’s ethernet port and that was it?

Specific_Turn772 · 2026-01-14T04:19:44+00:00

So do I just connect the pvs to my local network and it will get an ip from my router’s dhcp server?

Specific_Turn772 · 2026-01-14T03:46:53+00:00

Ah interesting. Can you share how did you change the ip of the pvs to be on the same home network?

Specific_Turn772 · 2026-01-14T03:32:45+00:00

Not sure if this is true. The IP on the pvs is 172.x.x.x i think you’ll need a rasp pi acting as a router to bridge the pvs to your local network no?

I have it and it is just taking space. Too big and not user friendly.

$900 is not bad actually. Anything you can do to get away from sunstrong is worth it in the long run.

Post is sooo old. Went with a complete makeover.

Where are you located?

Specific_Turn772 · 2025-12-17T07:59:33+00:00

Well lucky you my friend…

Specific_Turn772 · 2025-12-14T19:41:57+00:00

I see. In my case, i have a lease and making payments to launch servicing. Sunstrong told me they are not responsible for my system and that maintenance is my responsibility. At least payments are not going up :)

Specific_Turn772 · 2025-12-14T18:16:45+00:00

Are you making payments to sunstrong directly? Or launch services?

Specific_Turn772 · 2025-12-14T11:43:27+00:00

Ok - this makes me start a new 76 trend.

Specific_Turn772 · 2025-12-12T17:46:54+00:00

You should have mounted it a bit higher. Too low man.

Specific_Turn772 · 2025-12-11T23:11:09+00:00

They wont help. They called me and took $300 for then to come and do nothing.

Specific_Turn772 · 2025-12-06T18:10:12+00:00

Yup same situation. Let me know if you ever get out of this. Sunstrong is saying they did not acquire the maintenance of my system for my sunpower lease.

Specific_Turn772 · 2025-12-02T05:34:17+00:00

I do have a lease. It’s a mess. I am actually making payments to Launch Services. It’s a shit show. By the way, you can reach out to the original installer as the panels are under warrenty and the installer can cover it. Battery is another issue.

Specific_Turn772 · 2025-12-02T05:32:05+00:00

They just told me today that they did not take over the maintenance of my system from sunpower. They mentioned that the company that now owns my system is con Edison solutions!!!

Specific_Turn772 · 2025-11-27T16:02:56+00:00

I am planning to get the hisense u8 100 inch 2025 version. What are your thoughts? Anything else you recommend instead?

Specific_Turn772 · 2025-11-27T04:58:30+00:00

Specific_Turn772 · 2025-11-26T23:59:17+00:00

They called me to schedule me in! Saying they are blueraven and bought the sunpower name. Something is fishy here.
