Hi. Trying to create a sensor which records the max value of a sensor just before midnight. The “Spa Daily Total Cost” sensor works.
The only bit not working is the final “Spa Max Daily Total Cost” sensor. It starts life as unknown, then becomes unavailable when it triggers… Any ideas?
template:
- trigger:
- platform: time_pattern
minutes: "/30"
sensor:
- name: "Spa Daily Total Cost"
unit_of_measurement: "$"
device_class: monetary
state: >
{{(( (states("sensor.spa_solar_wh_energy_daily") | float * 0.1725) + (states("sensor.spa_dr_wh_energy_daily") | float * 0.3031) + (states("sensor.spa_nr_wh_energy_daily") | float * 0.1814)) | round (2) ) }}
- trigger:
- platform: time
at: "23:59:00"
sensor:
- name: "Spa Max Daily Total Cost"
unit_of_measurement: "$"
device_class: monetary
state: >
{% set spacost = states('sensor.spa_daily_total_cost')|float(None) %}
{% set spamax = states('spa_max_daily_total_cost') | float %}
{% if spacost != None and (trigger.id == 'midnight' or spamax == None or spacost > spamax) %} {{ spacost }}
{% else %} {{ spamax }} {% endif %}
