[BUG] High-frequency state updates for eos_ac_charge_demand #217
Description
📝 Issue Description
What happened?
In the current development version, the entity sensor.eos_connect_eos_ac_charge_demand is updating its state every second. This causes significant state-noise in the Home Assistant database and unnecessary MQTT traffic.
The logs indicate that the CHARGE_DEMAND logic performs an Energy-to-Power conversion every second. Since the time denominator (seconds) decreases by 1 in every iteration, the resulting power value fluctuates by ~1-2 Watts every second, even if the energy value remains static.
Version Information:
Expected Behavior
Only Change after Demand-Update periodicly
Actual Behavior
