If you export energy from your batteries/inverter to the grid - does nothing show outgoing on your IHD?

A lot of meters don't show live export power, mine doesn't - bug in the firmware unsurprisingly.

Hawk Tuah · 20 Dec 2023 at 13:44

Hmm, mine does. I'll export a bit in the next one and see if it returns better results for the session.

Yes that's correct....nothing showed on the IHD (0W) all the time I exported.
The SMET2 showed the export, adding the +.5kwh to its total exported

My IHD does show export when exporting from batteries.

Saving sessions are over for now but now im gonna get paid to use electricity for next (hopefully) couple of days MWUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

From 2am til 22:30 tomorrow where it goes back into negative again which should lead to another negative late night im hoping.

So far on saving sessions I have earned £120.68

the empathetic remark (like those replies in the gc energy thread) is how does that saving improves the amortization of battery investment (overhead cost per KWh)

alphaomega16 · 21 Dec 2023 at 04:05

I do wish they would find a way to update the saving sessions quicker.

The one on 12/12 was over a week ago, perhaps they need to replace the ZX81 with a Spectrum :cry:

They're probably getting a "syntax error" as I used to get after mistyping programs from a magazine...

I used to do exactly the same - we're showing our age :cry:

Hawk Tuah · 21 Dec 2023 at 10:25

I saw they had a lot of Developer jobs going. I was tempted. :cry:

I saw in Reddit they may be waiting for payment for the sessions to clear before they allocate points out to people, makes some sense.

Why allocate funds to people when you haven't been paid yourself? type of deal.

Surprised they are not getting paid quick considering from what I hear Axle is next day typically.

13.5kwh battery with 6kw export capability but in reality it usually hovers around 5.8 (before house load). Thats how people are making money.

Ron-ski · 21 Dec 2023 at 15:14

12/12 results are in.

£14.85.

JackRegan · 21 Dec 2023 at 15:36

Mine too and the app was spot on.

12/12 11,616 points / £14.52
14/12 12,200 points / £15.25

SoliD · 21 Dec 2023 at 15:59

2952 and 3496 for the 12th and 14th December came through today.

Troop · 21 Dec 2023 at 17:40

14th and 15th session results are in, NO!, points added for the .5kwh exported on the 14th session.
8 points for each session, I can retire!.

Ron-ski · 21 Dec 2023 at 19:11

The App wasn't spot on for me, after the session I couldn't do the points are out by about 500 or so.
