Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

solar production stopped. inverter stuck on self testing
If you know how to use Python, you can run the following script to record the vitals and see what is going on. You have to install pypowerwall at: https://github.com/jasonacox/pypowerwall

Powerwall 2 - Control using Can Bus
You can get pretty detailed current data through the gateway's web API. Here's a python module I use on mine: https://github.com/jasonacox/pypowerwall

Any regrets adding Powerwall(s) to your system?
Finally, if you are tech hacker/maker, you will love the rich APIs that you get with the Powerwalls. There are so many fun projects like pyPowerwall to gather data or control your Powerwalls. I spend way to much time on this. :) Check out Powerwall-Dashboard for example.

Fixing a powerwall firmware failed update
It sounds like the firmware update failed trying to upgrade the Powerwall itself (the TEPOD or TETHC device). I would run pypowerwall against your GW to see what additional data/alerts/errors you could find (using python) - something like:

T425s and great experience with Tesla
That's awesome! I had to run the wizard to remove the Neurio and recall it had the settings still in there. Some of the site info forms did have me question things a bit so I suggest you screen capture the portal data, especially grid_code, just in case. If you have pypowerwall running, you can grab some of this as well:

I have a 12kw 2 power wall system recently installed. been granted pto about 3 weeks ago. Every morning I have to reset my c/b’s so my system will turn on. Has anyone experience this? If so what was the fix. I have already put a complaint in with Tesla they said they are looking into this issue.
What do you see when you log in to the Powerwall Gateway portal (local network or Gateway WiFi)? Or alternatively, use pypowerwall and run pw.poll("/api/troubleshooting/problems") and pw.alerts()

Local Weather Data Added to Powerwall Dashboard Graphs
The Power Flow diagram is made possible by the pypowerwall proxy container and using a text/html Grafana panel and iFrame to render the animation. It is basically rendering the same thing you would see if you log in to the Powerwall Gateway.
- Flaky Tesla Inverter? Any way to get granular data?

System rebooting continuously?
I wish the Tesla app had more troubleshooting info. You might want to check out Powerwall-Dashboard or use pypowerwall and a Python script to get more info and the alerts that the PW+ is raising (requires pip install pypowerwall and you can use python -m pypowerwall scan to find your IP address):

Solar clipping-Causes?
Does https://github.com/jasonacox/pypowerwall make any sense to you? If so, you can use this library to get logs and additional data from your gateway that might help explain things.

Today is the First Eversource Battery Demand Response Event of 2023 - How Much Can You Make?
I use powerwall_monitor to capture the data from my Powerwall on a minute by minute basis and send it into an InfluxDB database. Thus, even my numbers are a bit of estimate because I'm only using one sample a minute. To get these numbers, I filtered my data for June through September of last year. To determine if there was an event, I looked at times when I was outputting more than 5kWh to the grid between 2 and 7pm. It's pretty rare when there would be an event and I would be doing under 5kWh. Likewise, it's rare when there wouldn't be an event and I'd be pumping out more than 5kWh.

What happens with Wi-Fi failure?
You can connect directly to the IP address of your powerwall. It will present a certificate for https://powerwall/, but after you accept that, it’s pretty self explanatory on how to use it. It also present a set of REST APIs that you can use a project such as powerwall_monitor to grab information from and forward it to a dashboard.

Add Powerwall Flow Animation to Your Dashboard with pyPowerwall
Fair point and I saw your PRs too. Nice work! I needed to pivot to a different caching proxy to reduce load on my gateway and decode the protobuf payloads to get to string and freq data. I opened an issue last October to see if there was interest since it would have been a significant breaking change for anyone using the current version, but I didn't get a response ( https://github.com/mihailescu2m/powerwall_monitor/issues/23 ). It's not easy being maintainer and I have a great deal of respect for anyone willing to open source and support those efforts. Thanks for contributing! Your code lives on.

North Texas - Storm Watch active as of last night
There are a lot of people who use InfluxDb (https://www.influxdata.com) and Grafana (https://grafana.com). There are also some pre-built solutions (e.g. https://github.com/mihailescu2m/powerwall_monitor) but all of them require some tech knowledge (either in setting up the system or in installing the app). Hope this helps.

Dual Powerwall and 8.2kW Solar Panels in Illinois Chicagoland system - Live feed link below if interested in seeing actual performance
yah thanks I’m still trying to figure that out.. have you set this up before - https://github.com/mihailescu2m/powerwall_monitor? I can’t seem to get my cookieproxy to work? thanks

Any of y’all using Home Assistant to monitor your solar system?
I've used it, but I've found the integration to be odd. Sometimes it just starts failing for no apparent reason and then it will work again later. I already had powerwall_monitor up and running, which connects everything to InfluxDB and Grafana, and from there it was pretty simple to just publish the readings to an MQTT topic and bring them into HomeAssistant.

System powered on, but Powerwalls not charging?
People have built data loggers around both APIs so that you can track some of the data from your system and via it. You have to set up and run the software yourself (self hosted) and it requires some fiddling. This is a good example project that uses the local API: https://github.com/mihailescu2m/powerwall_monitor

Solar Monitoring
Check out the powerwall_monitor project on GitHub. This sets up a complete stack with a Grafana dashboard, influxdb backend, and telegraf to grab the data. Of note, as u/kairojya also mentioned, the local API has been becoming more difficult over the last few months. It not uses a non-standard authentication channel that breaks direct access with telegraf - but the project has a workaround.
