Teslemetry Pre-condition Script

Hi all,

I use the Teslemetry integration for my Powerwalls and Tesla vehicles. I have a script that pre-conditions the cars. This script can be called manually or from an automation.

I had noticed that sometimes I’d see connection issues or time-outs that would cause the vehicle to fail to precondition.

So I wrapped it in some retry logic. I was just curious for others using the integration, if you do something similar, or any tips or tricks. I think when the vehicle is in a deep sleep it doesn’t always work.

Cheers!
Matt
