2026.7.2
A refinement release on top of 2026.7.1: a new ambient info panel, more display
and unit options, and a batch of accuracy fixes for specific setups.
New: weather and astronomy panel
- A small info panel in the top-right corner showing the local weather right
now: temperature and wind, with the sky condition shown as an icon, sourced
from Open-Meteo, with optional Home Assistant entity overrides for outdoor
temperature and wind speed. It can be shown or hidden from the editor. - An optional astronomical readout (a toggle in the editor, shown only when
the panel is on) that adds the sun's altitude and azimuth, sunrise, solar noon,
sunset and day length, each labelled with an icon to keep the panel compact. - The wind-direction arrow is projected onto the tilted 3D ground, so it
keeps pointing at the true compass direction as you orbit the camera. - The panel stays visible in No UI mode, so a wall display keeps its ambient
weather even once the timeline and controls have faded away.
New: No UI mode
- An opt-in mode that fades the timeline and the on-card controls after a few
seconds of inactivity and brings them back on any tap or move. Built for
kiosks and wall displays.
Display and units
- A power unit selector (W or kW); energy follows it, so kW pairs with kWh
and W with Wh. - A separate solar-constant (irradiance) unit selector.
- A battery-sign option: default (minus charging, plus discharging),
inverted, or hidden on the battery chip. - An optional home-consumption override entity for the consumption chip
readout, when an inverter exposes a direct sensor.
Accuracy fixes
- Correct southern-hemisphere Clock and Trend, with hour binning now done in
the server's timezone rather than the browser's. - Fixed near-zero Clock and Trend totals on kWh-only solar sources.
- Coarse-reporting meters (those that report every 15 minutes or more) are
smoothed so their curves no longer sawtooth. - Fixed the solar forecast reading half power on sub-hourly buckets
(contributed by @adamhf). - Non-solar 24/7 producers (water turbines, micro-hydro) configured under
solar production now keep their night-time hours on the Clock and Trend dials,
and each per-source ring reads the exact recorder energy, matching the Energy
dashboard instead of the slightly lagging calibration series. - Multi-string solar forecast now sums every configured forecast provider
instead of showing only the first string's prediction. - Multi-battery installs with mixed wiring (one bank with a live power
sensor, another with only energy meters) no longer drop a battery from the
live power readout. - The home now keeps the colour of the selected chip after you leave the
dashboard and return, instead of resetting to the default metric.
