This crap matters though... NEVER underestimate that the input from humans matters..-Tesla's downfall - if they think everything can be run on AI...

Reporting back.... ucmndd ...your solution works!!!! Humans 1 - Robots/AI ZEro Faith returns! thanks for that... One small step for man.... One giant leap for mankind. JG

Ok I'll try that... thanks for the suggestion I've put in a $30 sell price... that should be high enough... surely... It's just gone past midday here.. Will report back tomorrow if that works Cheers

Your right. I tried that via the app... It didn't go anywhere> "Contact your installer for support" Of course I've already done that They were/are helpful But we are limited by the engineering and the app.. What more can I say?

We have a prevailing weather pattern my part of the world.. for near on 10-12 months... there is othen mist/fog..... ie cloud cover from sunrise until midday... yes there is "light"..sure..but it's weak light.. not nearly enough power off the panels to cover a full 5Kw rate of charge off an 8Kwh...

I feel like putting a physical timer on the breaker in the gateway for heavens sake...to stop it doing this behaviour... \But why.. Why the heck should I have to do this? This is TESLA.... the greatest ..smartest.... AI company in the world!

Ok Ive just experimented doing what you and stopcrazy just said.... I've set time based control I've set off Peak period from 12 midday-3pm I've set Peak from 3pm till 9 pm I've set off peak from 9pm till 0700 (so it will discharge if necessary) off peak I've set Peak again 0700 till midday (In...

See where I am coming from here... I just can't believe this... That such a clearly fantastic, innovative company...full of so many smart people hasn't considered that maybe.. just maybe there is a flaw in "that approach"... That approach? (well just like Boeing and the 747Max) You've got to...

Think of the problem like this. Where is Tesla's "back up" solution for all their customers - each and everyone one of you all... If Tesla sensing goes down? (Without a manual override setting in the app....) How will you all then control your batteries?

See everyone - the problem here is sensing It's a fundamental law of computer science and robotics. Garbage in garbage out If the sensor is feeding the wrong info - the robotics and AI won't work... Maybe you all think I'm daft...that in my set up I don;t have sensing on the main...

I understand your approach and appreciate the help what fake rate plan would you set up to do what I want?

ok What specific settings do I enter to trigger the battery to only switch on at 12 midday and off at 3pm and Battery can only discharge when there is no solar power?

^Ok thanks for that.. So I set up a fake rate plan using time of use... I only want it to charge between 12midday and 3pm I only want it to discharge when the sun is down I set the low tarrif between when.... and the high tarrif between when? How do I precisely do that? (Wouldn't it be...

Thanks for taking the effort to do that and help out.. but Seriously? It would be that hard for Tesla to :"implement a whole new mode"... To get the app team to just add a manual control option... If customer wants to switch on battery themselves between 12 midday and 3pm set 1200<>1500 in...

Sure Ive tried doing that. But how does this give me the specific charge control I need? The sun is highest in the sky at 12>3pm. The orientation of my panels gives me the greatest collection between those times. It takes 2-3 hrs to charge my battery and i want it to charge between those times...
