LuxPower Distribution Card

hacs_badge GitHub release (latest by date) Github stars Github issues

A simple power distribution card of an inverter and battery system, for Home Assistant. The card is modelled after LuxpowerTek's app and website.

Installation

HACS

This card has been added to the list of default HACS frontend elements. Search for the name on HACS, and download from there to install.

Adding the card to the dashboard

Currently, the UI editor does not work. The only way to add the card is to add the yaml code. There are examples in config document.

LuxpowerTek integration

The LuxpowerTek integration is hosted in a private repository by Guy Wells.

Refresh and the Dongle serial number

This refresh only works for the LuxPowerTek integration referenced above. The service name and function call format are hard-coded.

The location of the refresh button can be set with the refresh_button_location config value. There are 4 accepted values for this config:

  • left (Displayed on the left hand side, below the battery text.)
  • right (Displayed on the right hand side, above the grid image.)
  • both (Displayed on both sides, as described on the above two points.)
  • none (Removes the refresh button.)

Allocated power entity

The allocated_power_entity is an entity for allocated power in your house. It is a helper group of summed entities, that allow you to see how much of your power is assigned to devices. The reason this is a single grouped item, is because then it works well with the history graph.

Grid indicators

Below are 2 pictures of the grid image. The first is the grid in a normal state, and the second is the grid image with both indicators active.
