Battery Storage - 7 month update

As promised another update, following many tweaks and a firmware upgrade from Solis.   So the existing problems were:   Whenever the battery isn't at 100% SOC, it pulls an amount of power from the grid, somewhere between 60W and 100W Even when the battery is actively charging, it still pulls the same 60-100W from the grid, regardless if there is enough PV power to charge the battery and cover loads at the same time. Once the battery is 100% SOC and im generating PV
