What APP do you use for Solis Inverter?

    I have the Solid Cloud APP a couple of days. I haven't spent much time on it, but I find the live monitoring to be a pile of cow balls. The APP refresh rate is every 5 minutes and i'm not sure it's accurate.

    Agree, not much good for a snapshot and as you say, that snapshot is not accurate either. I don't use another app, but I am interested. Part of it may be the datalogger rather than the inverter?

    It's correct with its readings but as you said 5minute intervals, will be perfect for a quick glance and day generation etc.

    I use it along with a Sofar reading and MyEnergi reading, they all differ slightly but I take Solis as gospel for generation on any given day and Meter for measuring of import/export

    I use Solar Assistant, it has solis functionality even if not stated on its website. I did this project but just used a RS485 to USB adapter instead of the EW11. It was quite simple and gives live data. Probably cost about 150 euro with all the bits. https://github.com/Jumpy07/Solis---SolisCloud-and-Home-Assistant

    The latest beta version of solar assistant says it supports solis WiFi Data loggers but not sure if this is directly and without any additional hardware.

    +1 on the project above, I did it and it's nice having the solis data working almost as an alternative back up. The live data from the invertor in home assistant is the biggest bonus.

    Try using solis cloud on a web browser
