0.3.0 auto-discovery, missing soc_kwh
Closed this issue · 6 comments
First of all, the new auto-discovery works great. It really simplifies the process of working with the addon. Hats of for this!
I discovered (no pun intended) that soc_kwh isn't included in the auto-discovery. I know that we have the soc percentage to work with, but it's quite nice to have the actual energy level in kilowatts to work with. (for instance, i use range/soc_kwh to estimate "kWh per kilometer"). Would it be possible to add soc_kwh in the auto discovery?
Ok, but i'm talking about energy level. It's available in the MQTT response:
saic/[user]/vehicles/[vin]/drivetrain/soc_kwh
But I can't find it as an autodiscovery value.
Sorry, my mistake. You are right, this value wasn't added to the auto discovery. But i think it shouldn't be a problem to add it to 0.4.0.

Ok, sounds great :)
The fix is on the way: PR
Attention: The value of soc_kwh is wrong because it's based on the wrong capacity in iSmart (72.5kWh). So you need a factor to correct this. At the moment you need a template sensor to do this.

Great! Actually, I think that 72.5 is correct in my case, but I will double check this and create a template sensor if needed.
