2.0.0-beta.10 — the backup reserve
Pre-releaseThe energy only the backup socket can reach
The device stops at the configured discharge floor in normal operation, but keeps discharging to 8 % while it is running the off-grid output. That band was invisible: usable_energy counts down to the floor and stops there.
backup_reserve_energy reports it, on Venus A and D, where the figure is confirmed. Other models get no sensor, and the panel rows that show it disappear with it.
reserve = capacity × (min(SOC, floor) − 8) / 100
| SOC | reserve on a 17.9 kWh pack |
|---|---|
| 61 % — normal working | 0.72 kWh |
| 12 % — at the floor | 0.72 kWh |
| 10 % — outage in progress | 0.36 kWh |
| 8 % | 0.00 kWh |
Reported whether or not the socket is armed: a figure that drops to zero exactly when someone is planning for an outage answers nothing. It counts down once the state of charge is inside the band.
It appears in "Reserve · lifetime" and as a dotted line below the discharge floor in the pack columns, drawn quieter because it is the exception. The sensor carries both percentages as attributes, so the panel holds no copy of the number.
Settings: import and export
One text box, filled with what is set now, and a button that applies what was pasted into it — the same in every browser, no file permission, and you can see what you are moving. Text that is not a settings object is refused rather than silently resetting everything.
Fixed
The pack table highlighted any pack more than 5 points from the median. Since the device works one pack at a time, and the packs therefore sit around ten points apart, half the rows were marked at any moment. A row now stands out at the same distance the spread tile warns at, and both read that distance from one definition.
