The New interface looks great. Just an idea for a modification.
My usage case is sometime the car is parked at home for a few days and it would be nice if they was a way to only charge from solar and not over night. but leave the timer in place for the nights when I need a full charge for the morning. I have tried enable change in eco mode but that just goes straight to 32A.
Basically the shaper was ignored, Ive toggled it on and off, Changed the value, there is no difference.
Almost as if it doesnt āseeā what the openevse is using. I use it to limit the charge so i dont go past what the house batteries will output. It charged the car at the full speed.
My EVSE, is running 7.1.3.T2 and a huzzah esp32.
I have my dadās still running the same dev build. havenāt reverted his yet, (openevse wifi v1)
Ran a test and its made a liar out of me. worked as expected. Gonna have a poke at mine now.
On my huzzah one, it doesnt. (For reference when on batteries i feed it a falsely high value, I am not currently pulling18kw!, just offset by about 10kw)
I let it run for a few minutes, and there was no throttling even though it was above the load limit, changing it down. Any clues?
Just installed 5.0.0 Master. I can no longer change the charge current using the slider when manually charging. This has always worked fine previously. Also tried the 26/9 dev release and same problem. I can set the max in the OEVSE screen but cannot move the slider on the charge page.
Ah! It has just started working after about an hour since installing 5.0.0. I am thinking a Cookie or some cache effect. All okay now!
After three days, the connection to the MQTT server has stopped, saying āno connectionā. Disabling and re-enabling makes no difference. Nothing wrong with my server. Restarting the OEVSE WiFi via the menu in the firmware section fixes the problem.
I had this identical problem months ago with a much earlier version.
I am using the latest 5.0.0 DEV version. master_8c9a482c_modified
But I think the problem has been there for some time.
Does it continually retry?
MQTT connection stopped working again. Disable and enable make no difference. Rebooting WiFi code makes it work again. Iām going back from the dev to the 5.0.0 release
I donāt think the history page is too spammy. I just think itās not very good in describing what is happening. For example if it is on a timer and is in disabled state, when you plug the ev in, it just reports as being disabled, while in fact it is an action of the the vehicle is connected. There is this weird thing of repeating the kwh when not necessary though.
