I've just had a powerup (22/11/2024 0730-0930). However, prebat didn't fully charge the battery as it thought I'd get more solar during the course of the day.

Solar is uncertain (especially at this time of year), so I'd have thought it should prioritise guaranteed free electricity now over potentially free electricity later (I don't get paid for my solar, so my export rate is set at 0p).

Also, iBoost seems to be kicking in, even though my battery is not going to hit 100%.

Was the power up configured as zero rate? Did Predbat charge during the power up using the full time or not?

What are your IBoost settings?
