Description

Can you add the battery states to your script? The most important one for me would be 'statement_of_charge_soc' so that I can always monitor the battery level. Currently, I'm using the Growatt cloud for that, but it synchronizes very irregularly. The rest is already working great with ESPHome! Being able to see the battery status would complete the whole setup.
