Battery Cycles in Home Assistant

Hi,

I see a “Battery cycles” value in Hone Assistant”, but not sure what this refers to. On my system, commissioned 2nd April, it reads 65, and seems to increment daily, though there are no values prior to the 14th June. Any ideas what this is? It seems to be shown in Richard’s BBC Basic app as 65%?

Regards

How many times the battery has been charged and emptied I think.

Or at least how many times charged if not both

That data wassn’t available on the AIO until recently, was available on other inverters and batteries but not the AIO as it presumably works differently and the authors of GivTCP had to write some new code to access the battery data.

Thanks for that, sort of makes sense as the battery charge does go up and down daily at the moment, and it’s 65 days since issue I had with the portal were resolved. Is there a reference manual somewhere which tells you what all the readings available in Hone Assistant are? Has a quick look and couldn’t find anything…

Regards,

Iain
