Hi, I implemented this extension in my hassio and was surprised that I was able to get twice as much out of the battery as I stored there. Is it possible that the registers are reversed?

I have seen a similar thing happen to my batteries, and I believe this is a bug in the BMS firmware. I see the total discharge amount jump by a couple MWh once in a while.

Unfortunately, this affects window discharge counters too (i.e. "discharge today",) so there isn't really a reliable discharge metric from the battery, unfortunately. The best that can be done AFAICT is detecting when such jump occurs, accumulating a correction factor and subtracting it from the total reading, but that requires non-trivial logic :)

The data itself is very meaningless. It is an order of magnitude higher than is realistic. This is data from inverter:

Total charge: 3490 kWh / Discharge 2639 kWh

Hm, so one thing: I won't claim that the HA stuff is accurate: I don't use HA and the file comes from the gist I forked from (https://gist.github.com/pavelmaca/170c282bdb9e20b6c624e8c7633be3b2.)

That being said I believe you're correct that the absolute numbers from the battery on its charge/discharge are meaningless, precisely because of the jumps I mentioned in my previous comment. However at the same time I think these counters are meant and do to represent the amount charged/discharged – they're just somewhat buggy.

I determine this by taking a short term derivative function of the total counters. It for the most part matches the values from an inverter (blue & orange are data from a pylontech battery, green & yellow -- from my inverter):

Notice how the scale and the "shape" of the graphs between the inverter and the battery sorta match. This being a visualization of a derivative means that the total watt-hour counters are going up at a similar rate & similar time.

---

I personally am not using the totals from the batteries anyway, because among the problem of these counters occasionally "jumping" up, they are also updated relatively infrequently by the BMS. This makes the data really difficult to put into graphs which is my primary use-case.

from where did you get the the registry map? I am googling for an hour now to find a official protocoll documentation..

There isn't anything published. I imagine the person whom I forked this from determined a basic layout by tracing the I/O between the battery and the wifi module when it is working in the cloud mode and then the remainder is an informed guess.

I have also asked support a couple times for some official docs, only to get ghosted.

amazing work than, thanks a lot for sharing.

I had to read all the registry values and compare them to the official Solarman Business app data. There were some predictions based on the layout for additional batteries, even though I have only three connected in parallel.
