Anybody know what the difference is between these 2 values in the history data on the web portal ?
They always seem pretty close to each other, often exactly the same. eChgDay is the total amount of kwh charged but can't work out what eRecDay is ??

I seem to have "lost" a lot of the options from the maintain screen... only these two sections are viewable.. has anyone else noticed a change. ATM the phone app still has access to the other options

So seems I might as well set my DOD back to 10% then seeing as Mick and Solarchaser's Pylons are also at 98% SOH after about 18 months.
Setting mine at 20% for the past year doesn't seem to have had much impact, if any, compared to 10%. 🤔

Complete radio silence from Luxpower unfortunately but you can still edit or turn off grid charging from the web portal or app.Starfrog said:Any news on this as i seem to be charging my battery at night when i dont want it charging and it seems that its being done by some fresh hold that i dont seem to have control of now that they took away a lot of the settings in the lux monitor settingsScott in Fife, 2.9kwp pv SSW facing, 2.7kw Fronius inverter installed Jan 2012 - 14.3kwh Seplos Mason battery storage with Lux ac controller - Renault Zoe 40kwh, Corsa-e 50kwh, Zappi EV charger and Octopus Go0 -
Hi Scott, I guess my issue is i dont have any charge settings set and in the middle of the night and very early morning my battery starts recharging from the grid when it falls below 10 or 6 % I’d rather that it just didnt draw any further power from the grid until the solar starts and theres power available for free to charge it. So it gets recharged during the solar day and then discharges around late evening then for some reason it will get recharged at night up to about 10% or something (i cant see as i tend to sleep then! But not sure what data information will give me the percentage it was charged from and too during the night. Its not a full charge its I’d rather it didnt do any till solar output, and then only from solar until i get my smart metre and i can choose the time and use it effectively. Would there be a specific reason it needs to recharge from a low point below 10 to go back to 10% ?
