Sorry to moan but my 18 month old 8.2kW battery is showing quite poor capacity. This is from yesterday where the sun did not charge the battery at all. It was at 7% by the end of the day but only 7kW was used from 100% at 5 o'clock.

I was on 3013 until a period of low solar and the battery voltage went very low, I am now on 3012. Both versions seemed to manage normal voltages well. There is a new version coming so I would suggest a calibration at the upgrade. In the mean time monitor battery voltages, 3013 has the potential to flatten some batteries. If in doubt contact GE.

Mines even worse (FW: 3013), fully charged in the GO window and no solar input, it seems to be just under 6kWh :
