Wrong reading when using solar
Linked issue: #274
If you have a solar system, and the consumption remains zero for some time and then gets a value from the sensor, you may see an abrupt increase in the total daily energy sensor value that doesn't match the actual consumption.
What to do?
Try to use the left

method: left
