@cm-makes cm-makes released this 10 Apr 09:20

Dashboard Controls & UX

New Entities

  • time.aurum_{slug}_deadline — per-device deadline time picker, adjustable directly from the dashboard (set to 00:00 to disable)
  • number.aurum_{slug}_max_price — per-device max electricity price slider (only for cheap_grid devices, 0 = use price level/cheap period instead)

UX Improvements

  • Clearer price mode labels in config flow:
    • Solar only – runs only on PV surplus (default)
    • Solar + cheap grid – also runs when electricity is cheap, even without solar
  • Improved description explicitly states both modes always prefer solar when available
  • Dashboard updated with deadline + max price controls per device

How to activate

  1. Set device to "Solar + cheap grid" in AURUM → Configure → Edit device
  2. Restart HA (required for new time platform)
  3. New entities appear: time.aurum_{slug}_deadline and number.aurum_{slug}_max_price

Included since v1.7.0
