Release 0.18.0: review fixes to the CHANGELOG section

OPT-15 and OPT-20 rows: the retry is two inverters only, and OPT-20 no
longer claims no other battery moves. SAFETY-111 added to known issues.
MAINT-19 marked as from code reading. Wording fixes in the SAFETY-112 and
MAINT-11 rows, UX-38 and the price service note.

 |---|---|
 | `3050fa5` | The solar forecast can come from several sensors, added up, for example one per inverter. If one of them has no reading, that day's forecast is not used, and the status says which one. The single sensor still works ([[OPT-17]]) |
-| `e3e4ba6` | While Home Assistant is still starting, the page and the log now say "Waiting for Home Assistant" instead of looking like a fault. Control itself is unchanged: it starts when Home Assistant answers ([[SAFETY-112]]) |

-| `79dd077` | Battery modes on only. A charge in a cheap run no longer stops at the start of a new 15-minute period, and a battery that refused to charge is tried again every 15 min. In one test, the export at the end of a charge was 48 W where the code before this fix gave 746 W ([[OPT-15]]) |
+| `79dd077` | Battery modes on only: a charge in a cheap run no longer stops at the start of a new 15-minute period, and with two inverters a battery that refused to charge is tried again every 15 min. In one test, the export at the end of a charge was 48 W where the code before this fix gave 746 W ([[OPT-15]]) |
-| `0ce7d35` | Two inverters: each battery card has Start cycle and Stop cycle buttons, so you choose which battery gets the monthly cycle. Only one battery can cycle at a time, and a second start is refused with a short message ([[MAINT-11]]) |
+| `0ce7d35` | Two inverters: each battery card has Start cycle and Stop cycle buttons, so you can start or stop the cycle on the battery you choose. Only one battery can cycle at a time, and a second start is refused with a short message ([[MAINT-11]]) |
 | `bf9019e` | New price source `price_service`. If it fails, prices come from energy-charts.info, then from saved prices. With no price at all and the monthly cycle on, a notice shows and the cycle waits ([[PRICE-01]]) |
-| `004f859` | Battery modes on only. The 15-minute retry of a battery that refused to charge now asks that battery for 200 W and moves no other battery. In the test, without this fix, a battery in its maintenance charge took about 2,300 W for 34 s each time ([[OPT-20]]) |

@@ -51,6 +51,7 @@ Contents of this release, in merge order since 0.17.0 (`e36565f`):
 - Two inverters: after a drain ends, a change in house use can go unanswered for about 9 s, because some readings are old ([[SAFETY-106]]).
 - Two inverters: when one battery's level is missing, both batteries are held at 0 W, and for about 15 s the last command stays on ([[SAFETY-108]]).
 - Two inverters: if one battery's level stays missing for 12 h, the other battery's cycle can be marked failed, with a 7-day wait and a notice, though it is healthy. This comes from reading the code; it has not been seen on a site ([[MAINT-17]]).
+- When the 15-minute demand forecast sensor counts the battery's own charge, the maintenance charge runs at about half the power the peak limit leaves, so it takes about twice as long. Seen on a site: about 1.2 kW instead of 2.5 kW, and the peak limit was kept ([[SAFETY-111]]).
 - One inverter: after a link drop, the battery's own safety stop to 0 W can be taken as a refusal, and the site stays at 0 W for up to 15 min ([[SAFETY-102]]).
 - After a Home Assistant restart, control still waits until Home Assistant has finished starting, which can take several minutes, though the readings are already there ([[SAFETY-115]]).
 - While Home Assistant is not answering, the page can list inverters as refusing commands and sensors as missing, and send you to Developer Tools, though they are fine ([[UX-37]]).
