Thank You, VRM Devs for the improved generator dashboard

Just wanted to express my appreciation for the addition of 'Generator' metrics to the Historical Data. I've been vocal before (mildly, hey) about what was there before, but now we have this..

Just those little white bars make all the difference to a chart that was essentially useless to me before they recently arrived. So wanted to say it's noticed, and appreciated. (winter is miserable).

Perfection still elusive though.. I don't have 'Grid', and haven't selected it anywhere, so mention of it (even with zeros) is taking up space.

Nice that Gen runtime also makes it into the 'Hours of AC in' on a daily basis (VEBus widget), but this figure eludes me..

We're never satisfied of course, but your work is noticed. Love my VRM. Thank you.

Thanks @JohnC - There are indeed more improvements coming to the dashboard for those with generators and shore power supplies, this change was just the lowest of the hanging fruit though.

Hi @JohnC

We have just launched an additional improvement to VRM generator history display.

There are still improvements in the pipeline for generator runtime display - which will require a GX device firmware update.
