dustmalik: Why are broadband plans more desirable? I have accumulated data on the mobile plan so I'm wondering if the broadband plan offers any advantages that would warrant switching. |

Kabawhat:Hi, If you're interested I have the ATS that jonescosmos pasted, it's brand new, never been used, ordered it for my use but ended up getting a victron inverter instead. If you're interested I could sell it to you less transport costs. I.e. for the $120 eqv, you only need to pay for local shipping since it's already in Nigeria |

Hi Guys, I have a some spare sensors(brand new) I would be willing to give out, both wifi and zigbee, any takers? For Wifi: I have some door sensors(they let you know if a door or window is open). It works with the sonoff app For Zigbee: I have some switches that you can use to control lights or a socket, you would need to install inside the patress. P.S. If anyone is interested in sonoff pow R2 sensors I am getting some in a couple of days from the US. |

TechGeek777: Yes, instead of connecting the solar panels to the inverter you will connect them to the charge controller input and connect the controller output to your batteries. (this is in addition to the battery-inverter connection) You can, it's just that if your panels ever generate more than 1000W it will ignore the extra 200W. given that panels rarely achieve nameplate I would say go ahead with this. Non hybrid inverters don't have inbuilt charge controllers so cannot chare via solar, they can charge via NEPA and generator(hopefully your gen is big enough) Yes they can 2 Likes |

Hi House, Does anyone know where I can find a fuse holder like the one in the attached picture? also a 140A 48V fuse too. BR

airsaylongcome: must is a really popular inverter brand, just search for "homeassistant must inverter", there are a couple of people that have tried and succeeded I'm sure. re the hardware, let's see what we can achieve without going to open energy monitor first, I'm pretty certain it would be easier and cheaper to cobble something together using HA, what do you want to track? airsaylongcome:what part of the fishing is stressful? I just got a proper fishing tape and not the ones our electricians like to use, that will make fishing cables a lot easier for me now, if you have POP then it's a lot easier due to shorter distances. That said if you want to use the no-neutral switches we can also think through it. I added a picture of a switch you can use without neutral. there are plenty on Aliexpress

EgunMogaji2:exactly, and since the bulb has to have neutral you can use a fishing wire to run neutral from the bulb to the switch. I don do am sotay I'm almost a fisherman...lol 1 Like |

airsaylongcome:I experienced the absence of neutral issue, there are zigbee(and I suppose wifi) wall switches that will work without a neutral, I have some of those. The issue with switches that don't have a neutral is that they are more complicated when you try to use it for a two way switch, the hack is to use one wifi(without neutral) switch on one end and a wireless zigbee switch on the other, this becomes more complicated if it is a multi gang switch sha, to get around this I have run neutrals to all my wall switches(I know this is not feasible in all houses). I will attach a picture of the switches to illustrate, ignore the neutral port on the switch, I'm just using it to illustrate. airsaylongcome:For emonpi, I used an emonTx and an Emonbase(simply a pi with an RF hat), the current sensors were connected to the TX which in turn sent the data over RF to the base which had a server where I could view it and could also upload to the internet. I've retired it now but I still have the hardware. for your CC+inverter wahala, if you can poll data via usb then I'm pretty certain you can use the Rpi for that, it's about finding software that addresses that type of controller(most chinese equipment will have roots in something popular e.g. fangpusun can use victron software (with some caveats). what's the brand name? do they have a website? or what software do you use to poll?

airsaylongcome:Thanks for the welcome what hardware do you use? my energy consumption has been largely optimised and we have a communal gen that comes on at 7pm at night, but as long as my battery voltage is above 50V I don't take any power from either PHCN or gen(can't tell difference yet), once below 50V, it's takes power and stops an hour after adsoption(I got help from someone I met on the solar thread on NL to program this) with the exception of the zigbee radio(called coordinator), I got it all on Aliexpress, I have a lot of Tuya, some Aqara a lot of ther vendors for zigbee. I got burnt once as the stuff I got could only work with certain coordinators and certain channels other than that, it's been fairly easy to acclimatise. I got the coordinator on tindiebot but there are a lot of others you can get, some on aliexpress too. I'm happy to share what i've learnt, the great thing about the open source community is how freely information is given, I'm sure you'll be up to speed in no time especially as I see you have coding experience. I unfortunately have been unable to get past "hello world" for the past couple of years...lol. Yes I do, I looked into sense when I wanted to start but they were only for 110V, for openenergymonitor, I used an Emonpi to track my consumption for a bit(just electricity, no solar) so I did a little fooling around. I have an electrical engineering background plus power sector experience, that's why it might seem like I know a lot, don't be fooled it's all packaging |

Happy to find this thread...lol. I'm a noob when it comes to home automation but I've managed to get some notches on my belt. I currently use HAOS (home assistant or HA) on a Rpi4, I also have Venus OS running on an Rpi3 (I use victron for my inverter + solar). I have a couple of wifi switches and zigbee switches on HA, I also have a couple of sonoff switches connected to HA using the sonoff local integration. I'm bigger on measurement than control so I use the sonoff pow R2 to track all the ACs I am tracking temperature and humidity in some rooms to understand how to reduce my AC use I have a couple of motion sensors that I use to automate stuff(switch off fan if someone isn't on seat for 10mins, switch on hallway light if you sense motion after sun has gone down etc) I have IP cameras connected to HA(using the Tuya plugin, will try using an NVR eventually) I can control some of my light switches using HA (here it's a mix of wifi and zigbee) I can see the data from my solar panels and inverter and mains consumption in HA so I can use it for automations but nothing comes to mind yet, will probably get round to that later my next projects will be: 1. Figuring out when compound gen is running and only taking power from it i.e. ignoring PHCN totally (gen and PHCN use same cables, ive tried vibration sensor on gen but sensor isn't IP68 so get's damaged by rain, looking to cobble together a contact voltage detector that can detect when there's power on the generator output cable and send to HA) 2. Setting up telegram and whatsapp bots to automate stuff around the house I can't code BTW so I'm not a tech bro...na learn we dey learn the thing small small. Personally, I'm sold on Zigbee, I like the low power consumption and not having to worry about wifi wahala but I suffered small to gain the level of understanding I have sha. 1 Like
