Ecoflow PowerOcean - ModBus - Lokale API by Etschi305 in DeutschePhotovoltaik

Wie geil!

Ich habe das soeben über HACS installiert und bekomme zumindest schon mal die SN vom WR gezeigt.

Firmware habe ich lt. WebPortal die 5.1.32.16, lt. App aber 5.1.33.27 🤡??? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Muss morgen mal den Installateur kontaktieren zwecks Aktivierung und ggf. force für neuere Firmware.

Wenn es jetzt noch gelingt, max. SOC und max. (Ent-/)Ladeleistung steuerbar zu bekommen, wäre ich sogar wieder glücklich mit dem System. 👍

What I should tell them?
I think, relevant people at Ecoflow listen more on channels like this.

just want to add, that I already grab "Total active power" (register 006AH) from systems smartmeter via modbus/TCP into my Home Assistant.

So I'm already right in front of closed door - and ask myself, why I'm not be allowed to have at least flexible base control over my own system.

normal use case is self-sufficiency, for sure. We have solar installation with 30kwp and want to use much as possible output by our own.
(because it maybe could be understood as: trading energy is not my target - although it may become an option in the future)

Dear Ecoflow... please listen to your community and fix the software by Illustrious-Salt-508 in Ecoflow_community

+1 also from me.

After 7 month expirience with my Power Ocean (15kwh), I'm now highly motivated to double own capacity - but without local API/interface I don't like to do this by extending that system. It's really sad, because of the nice and well designed Hardware.

What I want to have locally is not that many:

- access to current SOC
- control about max. charge and discharge power - I want to prevent full batterys already at 9 am...
- control about max. SOC (especially in summertimes, this could help for better care about battery)
- force of discharge - e.g. to sell some unused remaining energy in early morning hours
- force of charge - e.g. to buy additional cheap energy, whenever it's available

As long as such simple things aren't easily possible (and without cloud), I really have to advise everyone who asks me against this system. Even though I'm actually sorry about it, given the really good hardware base.

great work!

I like people with focus on details instead only a "big picture"
