    [GUIDE] Automations for Octopus Intelligent with Home Assistant

    We've updated a couple of cars, and their locations have disappeared from HA. The other one which hasn't been updated yet is still reporting it's location.

    Exporting at 15p - Help please

    Exactly the same happened to me when I switched last week switching from Flux to IO - I got IO on the export, resulting in 2 import tariffs. After a few emails back and forth, I ended up going through the web application process again, and the change happened the following day. With determined...

    Exporting at 15p - Help please

    I'm similar to you, in have 2 powerwalls and recently switched back to IO from Flux a few days ago. How do you export at 11pm, does the powerwalls work this out itself, or do you force export somehow? My powerwalls will export to grid, got that sorted when I moved to Flux, which they did...

    Powerwall and Octopus intelligent issues

    Yes, it was done by the Tesla installer, but I had to request it that way. They had only ever done installs where the Zappi was after the Tesla gateway. I requested they move the Zappi from the main consumer unit, add a secondary consumer unit just for the Zappi on the incoming supply, before...

    Powerwall and Octopus intelligent issues

    This is how we have ours arranged. Powerwall does not see the Zappi, and I oblivious to it. It means the Zappi always charges from the grid ... except when the Zappi is in Eco+, the Powerwalls are full, and there's solar excess. In that situation the Zappi charges from solar excess . The only...

    Wiki UK and Ireland Supercharger Site News

    I agree, I was there a few weeks ago, and there was a couple struggling to get their Leaf charging on the few working chargers there. By the time I left, they still hadn't managed to get a charge. At least at the Ionity site there's a Starbucks across the car park, at Broxden there's not a lot...

    Spotify/tunein/maps/navigation

    I've recently experienced the map squares going blank, after a year of working flawlessly. That's driving from all over the UK from as far as Inverness and Wales, and quite a few trips through the Netherlands and onward though Germany. First experienced it on the way back from Dundee to...

    Controversial Opinion?

    We've previously bought all our cars/vans outright through the business, but 2 yeas ago we tried leasing. I was never comfortable with the uncertainty of charges for scuffed wheels, minor dents etc, as well as the restriction on mileage. Last week the lease went back and we bought our current...

    Add a specific ferry crossing to navigation

    I believe the trick is to select the ferry route as a waypoint, i.e. the dotted line in the sea/river estuary. This is pretty hard to do, and best done on a PC rather than the mobile app. It can take a few attempts, and I've only managed it once. That was for the same Newcastle to Amsterdam...

    Powerwall not exporting at full rate on Flux

    Thanks for the suggestion @pheo do you know if there's a dedicated email address for Powerwall support? @SK6 steve that sounds promising to hear that the option is coming to the app soon. I do have an export MPAN, having previously been on SEG with Octopus.

    Powerwall not exporting at full rate on Flux

    I've recently switched from Octopus Intelligent to Octopus Flux. I have solar and a Powerwall, and have programmed the import and export rates for my region. The issue I have is that in the peak period, 4pm to 7pm, the Powerwall only matches the house demand, and just the solar is exported...
