Thank you. I’m looking hopefully forward to Feb. 20th. 🤗  
Due to external management of the EV chagers (with evcc) it is difficult to manage charging with PV surplus while FEMS makes a decision to charge battery from grid while the EV chargers could have a lower current to charge both: the EVs and the home battery 😇
