May be a dumb question, but should my Ohme wallbox communicate with my R135 to determine SOC. Currently it always assume 0% and will charge to 100% or whatever I set in the schedule. It seems that it should be able to communicate somehow but not clear if it supports the Zoe.
Count your blessings !
I'm finding that with full communication to my Leaf means that it makes some very erratic decisions based on a fundamental misunderstanding of what I actually want the car to do. For instance, if I set it to charge to 100% but set a maximum unit cost it will try to calculate how much charging it should do and then reset
my target to something it suggests is better; then it proceeds to not even get there because it tends to have a 'rest period' during every half hour. Next time I come to use it, it still remembers its 'target' rather than reverting to my 100% so might well not even try to charge beyond what it 'thought' was a reasonable target last time. Even when I've pretended to change my car and not told it how to communicate with the 'new' one it 'remembers' the state of charge and its target from the 'old' car !
I'd really love to be able to assume 0% and charge to 100% leaving the cars perfectly adequate BMS to ensure that no harm comes to it. I'll keep watching this thread and if it turns out that the Ohme can't communicate with a Zoe I'll probably pretend to change my car to a Zoe
Edited : just seen dk6780's post. Can anyone recommend a type of car that definitely doesn't talk to Ohme ?
