used it and it worked for my delta pros and extra batteries thanks so much, are you able to show a video how to set it up with the Smart Home Panel? I can see on other discussions it has been possible but I am not technical enough to understand how to do it.

Oh that is fantastic, what version of the Delta Pro firmware are you using? (it will tell you in the Ecoflow app)

Sadly I don't have a Smart Home Panel so unfortunatly I won't be able to cover that.

v1.0.1.18 of the Delta Pro firmware which it says is the newest as there are no updates. I think reading the posts online it wasn't working then EcoFlow changed their minds and opened up the ports and it seems to be working again. Thats a shame that you don't have a Smart Home Panel, its been a pain in the backside because of the lack of integration with existing solar but I am trying to essentially get it all to automatically charge with my existing household AC solar on my roof via Home Assistant. I have to manually change charge rate which has wasted countless hours since its been installed at Christmas last year.

I have worked out that Glow's In Home Display Smart Meter can integrate with Home Assistant as well but I am due to have my Smart Meter upgraded next week from 1st gen SMETS1 to newer SMETS2 so will order it then and hope I am work out how to get them both to work together to change the charge rate depending on how much solar electricity I am generating.
