Hi all,
Just got my car and am quite confused about charging. I'm using Intelligent Octopus so have a discounted rate between 11.30pm and 5.30am - so naturally i want to charge the car during this period.
Everything seems setup in my Octopus app and it is showing me my "Smart charging schedule" to get to 80%.
My Ohme Home Pro is set, as requested, the charging schedule is set with no price cap.
My car is set to "Charge Immediately" and not exceed 80% - i believe that if everything is working, the charging functionality of the car itself is not required, it should all be handled by Ohme and Octopus ?
But nothing happened overnight, no charging at all.
Just wondered what other people's settings were in this scenario and how they have got it working ?
It feels like, overall (not sure what it's like with other manufacturers) that this is all overcomplicated. I can now charge 3 ways, using the Ohme, using Octopus, or using the car and none of them have a setting that says "charge my car only in-between these times".
