Since HomeWizard still does not show the graphs I would like to see, I started setting up Home Assistant to create my own smart home, with logging of all the stats displayed correctly. A combination of P1 import/export, Solar panels production PLUS the effect of the plug-in Batteries charging and discharging!
Look at what I see in the HomeWizard App, in three graphs(!): my ‘Home Usage’, ‘Solar Consumption’ and ‘Plug-In Battery’ profiles:
Please note these graphs are showing me using incredible amounts all during the day, PLUS the consumption at night is shown as zero watts, while of course the batteries are keeping everything running in the home, at around 250w ‘standby usage’…
So, now look at how much better it is, when all the data is combined in one simple graph:
Anything in the plus is actual usage by the home; split over battery, solar and grid as power source. And the minus shows batteries charging and power returned to the grid. This tells me exactly what I would like to know, my actual home usage!
Thank you Home Assistant!
I have tried to explain to Homewizard what is wrong with their graphs… Unfortunately it has not improved yet and I am not expecting anything anymore. Anyway, by now I cancelled my HomeWizard+ subscription.
That’s all folks!
Have a nice day…
