Frequently Asked Questions #

My Home battery together with Home Assistant #

If you use Home Assistant to control the battery commands you give from within the app might be overruled by Home Assistant. This will make it look like the App isn’t working.
Solution: (Temporarily switch off the Home Assistant control of the battery)

The application isn’t refreshing data #

Mainly on Android sometimes the phone “kills” the timers that are being used to fetch the data from the battery. This will make the app seem ‘frozen’
Solution: At the main screen (with the battery card(s)), pull down to refresh the view. This will make the App rebuild the ui and restart the timers to refresh the data.

Do I need a “Smart meter” to charge or discharge? #

When you want to have the battery charge / discharge itself with a fixed value you don’t need a “Smart meter”. The charge and discharge button tell the battery to either charge or discharge with a fixed value.
The value used can be set in the advanced settings

I pressed “Charge”, sessy is charging with only 1500 watt? #

The amount of charging / discharging is a setting of the app and works per device. To change the value edit the device and go to the “Advanced settings”. Don’t forget to save the device after you changed the advanced settings.

I really like the app can I buy you a coffee? #

Sure 😀 I’ve created the app in my spare time because there was none and I proudly own 2 Sessy’s. It’s for free as I believe there are other people who create things I can use for free and in that way we help each other.
But it is possible to buy me a virtual coffe at https://buymeacoffee.com/digitalbeach
