I’m using Darwin’s Powerwall Manager via Hubitat. Set to run self powered exactly 5-9am and pm and it works instantaneously with 0.0 daily or ave demand. Did you verify no excess loads causing the spikes?

Check to see if this is still working, the recent firmware updates they have done to the PW/Gateway killed my connection to Hubitat.

I’m using same setup. I moved the scheduled start time to 4:40am. Tesla app showed going off grid at 5:50am so not happening instantly. I’ll check throughout week to see if fixes issue.

When mine was working, I had a repeating action that hit the same endpoint every minute for 5 minutes. It always worked at least one of those 5 times without delay.

Still working for me for some reason on app version 20.49.0 as of 3/1/2021.

Edit: I now recall a number of weeks ago when they updated the software and it broke my Hubitat briefly. I had to change my powerwall password and log back into the Tesla account in the hubitat power wall app to get everything working again. Try that (click on “change or forgot password” and follow the instructions on the login screen from 192.168.91.1 or https://teg). Worked for me and no issues since.

How did you set 5 repeating actions? I have 7 spots to schedule actions and used 6 to cover the 2 on peak periods. I used the 7th to add same setting but 1o minutes earlier. I did not see an option to add more schedules.

Had my 8.16 kw panels plus 2 Powerwalls installed last week. Was surprised to see a meter slot for measuring power going into the Powerwalls. The installers told me that APS requires a separate meter for the Powerwalls for the past year or so. Wondering why they would want that info...
