I forgot to turn off timed discharge last night after the session and it popped off tonight for a couple minutes before I saw it lol.
just dumps at the max rate, whatevery ou're using in house will be used and then any excess goes to grid, so in mine and @HungryHippos case this is 2.4kWh minus our base load so about 1.9-2kWh for me.

wonder why there are two options for discharge then when you set it, meet home demand and full export.

Surely meet home demand should just be home demand output and nothing more (for me with Solax this is self use, it will output enough from battery to cover house load)
And Max export would be dump at output level battery or inverter can handle (for me with Solax this is forced discharge, dumps at 5.5kw no matter house load)

That is dynamic mode on givenergy, the default setting.

yeah its still normal export
That's probably because there wasn't one today.
Ah, so it would seem
But the rest still holds true. It's usually via this thread I see it.

Good god don't do that to me andy lol, thought I missed out on another ££ despite checking octupus site literally every half an hour lol
On another note my 29th has been updated 23,768 points which is worth £29.71 which was spot on for the Saving Session website

I have some emails about them and was able to piece together the times. I think this was complete.
Looks like most interesting time to add load is 17:00 - 18:30, kind of guessed already.
Note 1: I didn't add the two morning sessions, seems pointless as they seem quite unlikely.
Note 2: MKW and I agree, weekends are also pretty unlikely, as a lot of industry shuts down on the weekend.
