I have been running this:
https://myenergyoptimiser.co.uk/
for a couple of weeks now. It really is set and forget once set up.
Briefly, it identifies the cheapest slots in the day and charges your battery. There is a learning algorithm that takes a while to kick in, and the solar prediction hasn't had effect yet ( short of sun).
There is a small subscription charge, but I am happy to pay that rather than mess about with coding. There is no contract period, you can leave when you like.
I have no interest or connection with the developers.

set and forget multiple charge slots
I tried using this but it never set up any charge or discharge events despite changing all the settings I could.
I cancelled within the 30 day test period, so it cost me nothing to try.
My biggest problem was that I didn't understand what it was trying to tell me. The explanations around each switch didn't help me to understand what I was expecting it to do - much better and simpler explanations are needed.
As far as I could see I eventually had working API links to both Octopus & my GE Inverter.
I may try again next year.
I have signed up to try MyEO following recommendations elsewhere on this forum - see "Making the most of Agile". Gary does Solar on YT had an interview with the developer, who, I thought, came over very well.
He seems keen to take feedback so if you had problems perhaps get in touch with him.
I'm waiting for my installer to send me my Inverter name and API - does anyone know if you can get this any other way? e.g. from GE?
I think there is a 'how to video' on the website version.
It wasnt on the app version when I set up


Shameless plug - free on Wonder Watt, with Agile integration to come in early Jan. :-)
Merry Christmas!
Wonder Watt
I originally asked wonderwatt about this and did not receive any hint of when it would come.
I will have a look when its been live for a while


The multiple schedules (up to 5) feature is now generally available on Wonder Watt. Feedback is very much welcomed - cheers!
