Put car on charge overnight as I do every Wednesday evening, set to charge to 80% as normal, but woke this morning checked the app and the cars charged to 100%
Don’t understand how that can be, I certainly didn’t change any settings in the car and the Zappi and octopus Intelligence can’t override the car, very strange.
Any ideas?
100% charge
Octopus exceeded the limit in their app on mine yesterday. It's set at 80% and the car at 90%. It's never done it before but found it charged to 90% that day. What is your car limit? Maybe Octopus had a glitch!Boris7 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 15, 2024 6:23 am Put car on charge overnight as I do every Wednesday evening, set to charge to 80% as normal, but woke this morning checked the app and the cars charged to 100%

I have had a similar issue. For me it was the charging e-manager routines
When the car fails to recognise that it's in the location of a routine... it will go with the e-manager default max charge percentage, rather than what you have set for your home max charge... e.g. 80%
For me that default charge would be whatever I last did when I was at a rapid charger or if I charge at a destination charger. Which could be 50% to 100% depending on how far I was going.
Hope that makes sense. Usually it resets if you unplug and plug back in.
