Sunsynk + Home Assistant

Small suggestion.

When the battery is at 100% set the wording to: battery floating

You can also use the battery amps when between -2 and 2 to display only : battery floating.

Hide 99% to 100% when fully charged.
 
Anyone with a deye install that is able to get the battery daily charge/discharge rates on HA?

I can see the values in solarman but the sensors haven't pulled through.

Using the StephanJoubert intergration

Can you add sensors? They are called DAY_BATTERY_CHARGE and DAY_BATTERY_DISCHARGE.

you need to tweak your integration yaml.

See #251

Best to have a look here, https://kellerza.github.io/sunsynk/reference/sensor-modifiers

PS: if you want to user the timer, it creates a select sensor which needs to convert it to switch, used a templete sensor.

YAML: 
switch:
  - platform: template
    switches:
      use_timer:
        friendly_name: "Inverter timer"
        value_template: "{{ is_state('select.ss_use_timer', 'On') }}"
        turn_on:
          service: select.select_option
          target:
            entity_id: select.ss_use_timer
          data:
            option: 'On'
        turn_off:
          service: select.select_option
          target:
            entity_id: select.ss_use_timer
          data:
            option: 'Off'
        icon_template: >-
          {% if is_state('select.ss_use_timer', 'On') %}
            mdi:timer-outline
          {% else %}
            mdi:timer-off-outline
          {% endif %}

You can also import a SwitchRWSensor from rwsensors - the last suggestion on this - https://github.com/kellerza/sunsynk/discussions/137#discussioncomment-5849694 - will probbaly add this as a standard sensor

@Slip - would you mind if I add a writeup of your panel & link to your repo to the sunsynk examples? - https://kellerza.github.io/sunsynk/examples/lovelace

Maybe something for later but going to keep it simple for now. You would need to look at both SOC and battery current to identify a floating state
 
@Slip - is there an option to increase the font size? Especially for the more-important numbers (e.g. everything watt)

The defaults seems to be borderline on being comfortable to read on a phone

None at this stage but I can look into it. For now try flipping your phone into landscape mode.
 
@kellerza looks like your grid connected sensor is not working properly with the example card you created. What is its output. The card expects a 0/1 or off/on

I had the same issue with a deye inverter. Was related to the template sensor which was spitting out 0 everytime..

For deye (or my specific solarman dongle), it should be deye_grid_connected_status instead of solarman_grid_connected_status

My solarman (on Deye) doesn't give any deye named sensors. I created sensor.sunsynkcard_gridstatus for the purposes of this card. The code is on slip's git

Landscape mode shows 2x Lovelace columns, so the width does not change at all...

It might have been unknown at that point in time, but we also had loadshedding - it's 0/1 now
