powerwalls behave fine in summer and winter. It’s November and now that are bit iffy.
Up to yesterday AI got it right but after a couple of very sunny days and wife charging her Outlander from the Powerwalls once on purpose and a second time by accident, we started the evening on 39%.
by the time 00:30 came we were probably down to 29%.
I set the reverse to 25% before going to bed. I got up for a pee at 01:30 and found not much going in but both cars charging on cheap rate.
I whacked the reserve up to 70% and woke this morning at 75% which was fine.
with solar not too bad today we reached 100% about 2pm and the immersion diverter cut in.
had I not been up, it might have been a disaster!
AI only looks back. Until forecasting is available (if ever!) a target value would be mighty useful.
i can look at the forecast and predict my needs with some accuracy after 2 years of experience.
