I’ve had new behaviour on my Powerwall2 today, and possibly yesterday, but not checked out the later properly yet. I emailed Powerwall support for advice, but had no response as yet so I thought I’d ask to see if anybody else has seen this?
Config is a Powerwall2 and a gen 1 gateway, not a backup config. Peak time is 07:30-02:30.
So, this morning during my Peak Time period the sun was shining, the app was reporting the battery was at 1%. Solar array was generating more than my house was using so I was expecting the battery to charge. However, instead of going to the Powerwall2 the excess was going to the grid. This continued for at least three hours then switched to charging the Powerwall. I believe a similar thing happened yesterday looking at the graphs, although it might have been longer.
Over the weekend I’ll download the detailed data and check to see if I’m right and the durations.
Part way thought the morning I powered cycled the gateway and Powerwall to see if that made any difference. There was not an immediate effect.
Any suggestions? Most irritating as this results in me sending power to the grid at 4p a unit (that could have been stored in the battery) then buying sone back later at four times the price!
I have a suspicion this has happened since going to 1.41.0, which added to losing wifi connection at 1.40.1 and lack of response from Powerwall support on both problems is wearing a bit thin.
I’ve attached a screen ahot of what I saw on the app (I watched this for quite a while).
