This Tuesday’s #HacksterCafe guest is @clomads of Voidbox Industries (vdbx.io)! She’s launching the PwrTool 500 – a high-capacity power and battery monitor for #HomeAssistant – on @crowdsupply soon. We have lots to dig into, from #OpenSource #SmartHome tech to running a #hardware #SmallBusiness out of a space-age school bus!

6/n The Anker Solix app does show some data, such as the amount of solar power being generated during the day. It’s easy to see where we adjusted the PV panels throughout the day. The peaks, at 250-270W, are where the panels are nicely lined up with the sun, shadow sharply straight behind the panels.

An interface displaying the Anker Solix F3800 device. It shows a battery status of 27% remaining usage time of 2 hours and 36 minutes, and a temperature of 96°F. Also includes DC input power details of 248W from the portable PV panel.
A mobile app interface displaying solar energy production statistics. It shows earnings of $0.80, CO2 savings of 6.12 kg, and total energy produced of 6.14 kWh. The solar production graph indicates maximum generation of 250-270 watts.
A portable solar panel is positioned in the foreground, with a Hyundai Ioniq 5 electric vehicle visible in a garage. The F3800 batteries and home power panel are visible along the wall inside the garage. Thin black cables from the back of the PV panel are along the floor of the garage.

5/n Screen capture of the Anker Solix app showing power going from the PV panels to the battery systems to the Home Power Panel to the house, with nothing coming from the grid. The app is a rudimentary #DigitalTwin the animation is somewhat informative. It can be disconcerting when the PV panel on the ground disappears when it’s too dark for it to generate any electricity

nun geht es also zuende, irgendwie war es abzusehen: #Devolo kündigt ihre #Smarthome Unterstützung ab. Die Zentrale war nur über den Online-Dienst konfigurierbar. Und da war, ehrlich gesagt, die Bedienung ziemlich umständlich, und die Weiterentwicklung schon lange eingestellt.

Nun werde ich entweder eine neue #zwave -Zentrale erwerben müssen, oder den Rummel neu denken. Zigbee wollte ich nie, vielleicht hat "threads" und "Matter" mehr zu bieten?
