As I expect you all have recognised, I tend to be sceptical of data that I can't verify at every stage, especially when the data is in effect the manu...
@batalto - your progress reported here is also very interesting, especially removal of the LLH header and relying on only the pump in the Midea main u...
@batalto - ah, that makes sense, I'd forgotten you have a considerable solar input. Downloading the raw data from the app - do you know if that is pos...
