Hi,
ESS is definitively the best solution for self consumption. But there are still a few cases where it is not allowed to be grid parallel or it is too expensive to install an anti islanding device. Furthermore there are situations where ESS isn't the best solution to use, e.g. in a camper. But these people often don't want to waste their solar power while being connected to the grid.
So what I thought would be nice to have is to combine the "Ignore AC" functionality with the "BatteryLife" from ESS. This would give the option to use self consumption while keeping the batterys alive. I don't know how complicated it would be to implement this (in ESS, VS, HUB1 or other) but it would be great to have full batterys every few days without always looking after them. There should probably also be an option in Venus OS for disabling this (enable charger). So when the camper leaves the campsite the battery could optional charge to 100% from grid before.
What do others think about this?
