What's new

The capacity suggestion now respects your battery's efficiency. The "Wolta measured a different battery capacity" repair no longer offers to raise your configured capacity when your battery's round-trip efficiency is low. Wolta estimates usable capacity from your charge/discharge data assuming ~95 % charge efficiency; on a low-efficiency system — where parasitic/standby losses are high (e.g. some Emaldo setups) — that estimate overshoots, so adopting it would inflate your capacity and unfairly lower your grade. A suggestion to lower capacity still appears (your real usable is then even smaller). Thanks to @leifkristianssonl for surfacing this in #1.

Re-authentication keeps your full configuration. When your profile token is rotated or purged and the integration re-authenticates, it now recreates the profile with all your settings — reserve %, purchase price, tariffs and nameplate — instead of only the battery basics. Previously those silently reset on the server until you reopened Configure. (A plant-scoped price from a linked web profile is intentionally left to the website, where it's edited.)

Upgrading

Update via HACS and restart Home Assistant. No configuration changes needed.
