Look what I found:
https://enlighten.enphaseenergy.com/pv/public_systems/fmyW651718/overviewEnphase Sucks your data and sells it back to you, San Diego, CA
Dear Enphase i'm really disappointed you started charging your customers $250 to get full access to the data from the systems they own! The free monitoring you now offer, MyEnlighten, is really underwhelming! *Where is realtime graph of system output or display of performance on a per panel basis? I'll tell you where Enphase took it away and now makes you pay for it! RIPOFF! I can't believe how useless this MyEnlighten is. System owner has no control over anything , and cant even get the data for the system they paid for! Ohhh but Enphase gets it and SELLS IT BACK TO THE CUSTOMER! Not cool Enphase! Give enlighten manager back to the customers for free!
On the same page:
Smart Solar Design is committed to designing and installing amazing solar for our clients.
*So they took away the real time graph. Well that isn't very "smart" isn't it?
Or do they mean "smart" to mean that they have found a way to manipulate and extort money out their customers to force them into paying more when they feel like it. Customers depends on something important like some readings, they spy on the customers habits, realizes this and starts charging just to view it.
In contrary to what I found some days ago:
https://support.enphase.com/s/question/0D53m00006ySLuRCAW/unimpressed-with-loss-of-local-api-connectivity-to-envoysPhillips_1325 asked a question. Edited by Gajendra (Moderator) November 19, 2021 at 12:09 PM Unimpressed with loss of local API connectivity to Envoy-S
The recent firmware update to my Envoy S gateway that was pushed by Enphase without my consent has now restricted local API connectivity and broken my home automation setup.

We understand that certain users want their energy systems connected only locally, and to dispense with our token authentication process. However, our token authentication solution is currently applicable to all locally-connected Envoys , and we stand by this decision which we feel gives an enhanced level of security for such systems, where 1. unauthorized access is largely in the hands of the system-owner. 2. To be clear, we did not move to token-based authentication to obstruct users from obtaining their own data or to somehow profit from that (which we do not).
1: Utter bullshit. It is Enphase doing the unauthorized access not the system owners and they have the cheek to turn around and accuse the owners of it for something that they had access to before.
2: LIAR. So that is exactly what they did.
Please correct me if you think I got the wrong impression?
Surprise surprise:https://developer.enphase.com/plansWatt 3. 10 hits per minute, 10,000 hits per month, Enphase attribution required. Free:bullshit:
Kilowatt 50 hits per minute, 25,000 hits per month, Enphase attribution required, Commercial use allowed. $25/mo
Megawatt 100 hits per minute, 300,000 hits per month, Commercial use allowed, $250/mo
Gigawatt, 300 hits per minute, 1,500,000 hits per month, Commercial use allowed, Uptime guarantee .$1,500/mo.
3. 10000/28= 357 hits a day. 357/24= 10 hits an hour (1 hit per every 6 mins)
Interesting, so they also dictate what you can use it for for residential or commercial.
I have got a better uptime guarantee, setup your own datalogger near a system that will allow you to do it.
Reminds me of a post about Google "Cloud" cameras "He buys something and then pays to see it."
