Can this type supply power whist being charged from the grid?

Replied to the topic Getting closer to a finished Haier system
I've used pressfit fittings almost everywhere because the elbows have a nice swept bend compared with the much cheaper end feed or Yorkshire solder fittings. But I've tried to bend the 15mm and 22mm pipe wherever possible, rather than using fittings. Ends of the pipes have been thoroughly deburred t...

Allow me to clarify this for the benefit of @mrkfm Firstly the application process with your Distribution Network Operator (DNO) is much improved over the past two years. In the majority of cases you apply online and you can get a response within 24hrs. There is no fee to pay, and most people now...

We previously had old electric storage heaters from when the property was originally converted from a disused farm building, a multi fuel stove in the living room, with a backboiler that fed a few radiators.   The hot water cylinder had a started to weep around the immersion port and...

Nope, it’s an Imperial/Cambridge start up, some fancy new AI development math that I can’t even start to comprehend.

Just curious, is this a new build, a BUS install or something else?

I used to set buy and sell prices in millions of pounds, perhaps one of the reasons I did so was to minimise exactly what you are experiencing. I can’t remember exactly,mbut I do know it happens significantly less than it used to. i only just put in my new cosy tariff parameters yesterday, I’m watch...

@papahuhu Oh sorry! Yes, of course the basic information is indeed there in the basic version; I think I was more interested in being able to do all the fancy control functions that the Tesla app doesn’t cater for. If I find that the auto calibration starts recharging my 27 kWh battery at peak rates...

Replied to the topic Solar Power Output – Let’s Compare Generation Figures
We have the same problem, 12 mature trees clip the morning sun for our entire east facing aspect. Until noon our generation is 50% of theoretical. I can’t bring myself to cut them down, they were there long before I was and some belong to the national park. If I ever move I’m looking for a small str...

I get the feeling we've gone a bit off piste rather quickly here, so I'm going to throw some generalisations towards you, @mrkfm. Everything @transparent and @jamespa have mentioned is good, solid advice but the fused spur issue is perhaps a bit of side show rather than the main event and you did as...

@papahuhu Unfortunately yes, due to how the houses are staggered and the crescent layout, next door neighbour's big trees start to shade our panels. Until the middle of September, due to the position of the sun, this doesn't affect the generation.

I don’t pay anything, you only pay for the pro version. My primary motivation was to use it to monitor the battery performance as I knew I’d be working it very hard. The warranty is linked to battery performance and there’s nothing on the Tesla App to communicate it to the customer, not that I don’t...

@chandykris Do you have some serious shading, is it trees or other buildings doing it?

@papahuhu No, I don’t have NetZero - bit difficult to justify £7 per month for the little use I would make of it really. Regards, Toodles.

It was almost identical to last year for us. After a glorious summer the low generation months have arrived.
