According to https://www.calameo.com/alma-solar/read/0050641541114ba3bc244 (page 13), the current can be limited on the charger to 6 to 32A.

Extend charger fuse limit range to 6..32A.

Context: for my application I want to limit the current to 10A, I prefer to charge slower and use more solar energy throughout the day. I would still like to use load balancing though.

Thanks for the blueprint by the way! It works really nicely.

Hey there! Did you see this PR? It's only 2 lines :)

Hello @janlugt,
Do you really need this change? Do you have a vehicle (and charger) that supports 32 A charging? If so, what model is that?
Have you tried to accomplish your requirements with setting a higher value on the buffer instead? As the documentation says, the charger is strictly limited to [charge fuse] - [buffer value].

I have a charger supporting 32A (of course), mine is also Zaptec and my car can be charged with 32A (of course?).
However I think this is not what @janlugt is asking for :)

I'm mostly interested in lowering the minimum down to 6A, since I want to maximize solar energy usage, but I figured I would sync it with the specs from the manual. Installations that support 32A definitely exist, though :-)
