Excess solar exports instead of charging battery
reported more than once
Symptoms
- Under a Time-of-Use schedule, excess solar is exported to the grid while the home runs off the battery outside the cheap window, draining the battery unnecessarily
- The Australian app build lacks the load/charge-priority 'Advanced' settings present in the US app, so the only workaround is switching modes by hand twice a day, for months
