Feature request: selectable slots

[ccristal]

Hi! I have this wild idea of using your card to select the slots during which I want my inverter to charge the battery. In order to do that, your card would allow users to select slots by simply tapping on them, and then it would issue selected_slot_on and selected_slot_off events respectively at the beginning and at the end of each selected slot, which I can then use to build a trigger for an automation.

I'm new to all this, so forgive me if none of it makes sense, but if it does it would be really useful - at least until I can figure out how to select the slots automatically. And even then. some manual selection would always be welcome.

What do you think?

Thanks! :-)

I like the idea of this for doing similar manually.

I.e. I program my battery every night, working out how many slots I need to charge the battery to target SOC using the cheapest slots.
Something like this could be used to populate a second card and I just program all of them into the inverter.

Or is there away to populate by cheapest price and show in price order?
