When sun goes down PV sensor does not go to 0 Watt about goodwe-sems-home-assistant

We could divert from the API output by overwrite the PV power sensor to `0` when the inverter is off (found in another attribute). However, I don't know if this is correct in all cases, e.g. if you have batteries?

I have this issue as well on the SEMS portal. I assume it is a bug on the api side where it keeps using the latest reported value in case of a missed shutdown message from the PV. (The last part is speculation.)

Sounds like a good solution for my case! I don't have a battery...
I would assume the output would be zero for PV even with batteries, but I am not familiar with the SEMS portal API.

By the way: My current solution is to manually restart HA when the sun sets. The sensor goes to zero Watts. So I think the API simply doesn't respond when there's no power?

In version 3.1.0 I added a check to report 0W when status is not 1. :)
