Update to my power leakage/grid compensation problem
I've posted a couple times about my constant grid import issue https://www.reddit.com/r/GlobirdEnergy/comments/1u6bzmf/house_is_sipping_from_the_grid_im_not_getting/ https://www.reddit.com/r/GlobirdEnergy/comments/1uevpb7/getting_charged_daily_for_usage_after_grid/
There were very helpful comments that taught me about setting grid compensation and asking the installer to set it to -50w, which based on my first post that it's always importing 15-20w would've make sense. Since setting the compensation up the Foxess app was showing no issue in that. Consumption was zero. Great.
But Globird app was still showing I was constantly using 100-200w of power from grid every hour except peak 6-9pm where I'm exporting.
I ended up checking the point where I got the grid compensation setup, and did see Globird usage down by about 50w. Turns out my compensation needed to be around -250w instead of 50w.
Learning here was I should've checked the Globird app in detail on how much usage it was actually sipping, instead of just checking the Foxess app. https://imgur.com/a/MdJmi6E
You can see now around 2-3pm the usage has gone down to zero now.
Thanks for this sub's help. Turns out I was paying more for my power all this time not just with Globird, but previously with Flow and Amber. I might need to revisit them now I guess I was too harsh on them not realising I was the problem!
