Dynamic time trigger starting at random intervals
Hi, thanks for all the good work around the project.
I have set up a notification containing the rank of the current hour whenever my automation starts the boiler based on the dynamic trigger. I am using 2,5 hour interval.
Sometimes the boiler is started even in the 22nd cheapest hour...which is a bit useless and counter-productive as it's actually doing quite the opposite of what it should be doing :)
I think the problems occur whenever:
- negative prices appear (imho even for the following day)
- Home Assistant is restarted
I will gather more data and add it here, but i had to already write something because the note is on my desk already for longer than a few months and i need to stop procrastinating... O:-)
I am using the prices for Austria.
Thanks.
Marek
