Will the "Alternator Charger" still be possible in the future?

[Blockvolt]

Hello,

If we could integrate and use the "Alternator Charger" in Home Assistant in the future, it would make it possible to build affordable DIY sub-power storage systems. That would be excellent!

Has anyone tried yet? Does it show up?

There is a workaround using the HA MQTT discovery feature and using an instance of ioBroker (another homeautomation system).

I have made a small picturized description.
I hope it helps

The alternator charger is already in implementation (data is showing up, commands are next)
