Hi all
First time caller, so go easy on me!
I deployed a Predbat/GivTCP/Agile Octopus automation through a Docker container running on my UGREEN NAS. The inverter control is up and running, so all is well on that side of things.
To avoid conflicts with a seperate automation that I deployed on my RPi4 to identify the cheapest Agile rates overnight to charge my XC40 by controlling a Shelly UK Plug, I looked into creating an automation using Predbat but I have run into some issues getting it up and running. Ultimately, I want to make sure that I don’t use valuable charge from my battery to move it into my car battery, as I want to export it for 12p per kWh.
The main issue seems to be the apps.yaml code and even using the dreaded A.I to sense check it for me, I can’t get the automation to work.
Any troublshooting support would be apprecaited.
