You could even go to something like -0.1 to say you would charge less even if it cost up to 0.1p more (best used with metric10).

**input_number.predbat_metric_min_improvement_export** (_expert mode_) Sets the minimum pence cost improvement it's worth doing a forced export for.
A value of 0.1 is the default which prevents any marginal exports. If you increase this value (e.g. you only want to force export if definitely very profitable),
then exports will become less common and shorter. The value is in pence per 30 minutes of export time.
A value of 5 is the default which prevents any marginal exports as they must be worth at least 5 pence for a 30 minute slot (less for shorter slots.
If you increase this value (e.g. you only want to force export if definitely very profitable), then exports will become less common.
The value is in pence per 30 minutes of export time.

**input_number.predbat_rate_low_threshold** (_expert mode_) When set to 0 (the default) Predbat will automatically look at the future import rates in the plan
and determine the import rate threshold below which a slot will be considered to be a potential charging slot.<BR>
