Read only data via mqtt should be really easy to implement, have no negative impact on selling cloud stuff (i guess?) and would already help me a lot!

Absolutely NEED this. Because nothing is visible externally, Iām forced to invent ways to manage it in HomeAssistant. PLEASE Ankerā¦this needs to be a priority!

+1 the lack of a rest API it the only reason I cannot recommend the Anker Solix line! Preferable something local like how APsystems does it.

Fully support this. The missing API is the only reason for no. Recommending the system. At least reading values of smart Meter, Battery status und inverter would be extremely helpful to realise a better energy management. It would be so simple.
Please stop adding features, make them usable first!

We really need an API to control the Solix offline, this is especially relevant for the Solix 3 Pro, so that we can control when to charge the battery using variable energy price plans.
I do not want 3rd party workaround integrations, which have no choice but to go through the cloud.

Iād really love this, too. No cloud requirement would be a huge plus. Other solutions are going that way so should Anker.

I definitely want to have a native integration in Home Assistant as well. Preferably local and without the cloud, of course. Simple MQTT queries would already be sufficient!

Waiting also for this. This would be a great plus. The integration home assistant would be smooter.

I would also greatly appreciate an option to use the Solarbank without cloud access locally and to have a native home assistant integration. This would draw a lot of new customers, like myself, that would like to have more control.

Rest API needed, please share!

Voting and joining the cause! A read only API will be a great addition to the offerings of Anker products and increase value for consumers!

I would like to have a good home assistant integration.
Therefore a local push API would be nice. The Anker Solix Solarbank pushes new data to the home assistant server in the local network.

+1 for local API/Broker!

Another +1 for a local REST API to pull from (and ideally MQTT to push state changes to).
My SOLIX C1000 is one of the few devices in my campervan that I canāt hook up to Home Assistant.
Just being able to read the current battery level would be a massive step forward.
Itās such a great product, but I feel increasingly let down by the app interface which:
- Is often slow to connect, and needs the device to be turned on by hand before it will connect
- Logs me out if I havenāt connected for a while, which requires an internet connection to authenticate me (which is unfortunate if I camped somewhere without any signal)
