Since getting my ESS up and running my solar iBoost doesn't really do what I want/need anymore.
Temporarily I have replace it with a simple smart plug with energy monitoring capability.
The only dimmable smart plugs I can find are meant for lights (max power of about 200W).
Is there a smart device available I can use to switch on/off and vary the power to my immersion heater (up to 3KW)?
I am using Home Assistant, so don't need it to integrate directly with the Victron equipment.
Thanks
You should probably mentioned what voltage the immersion heater is working at?
You could always use a Shelley to open and close a contactor that can handle bigger amps.
I have only seen manual industrial dimmers - up to 10kW - used to "dim" a geyser element.
This can be switched with any number of available smart timers which measures power, I use several tuya based ones for this purpose. I haven't seen a smart, high-powered, dimmer for this type of application.
