    [UK] 2024.8.x

    With this release the number of SCs free on the navigation map seems to have gone. When you tap on the SC on nav map in car just says number of stalls present not number free. You still get the free number in the Tesla app in charger section but it’s illegal to use phone while driving. It was...

    [UK] 2024.8.x

    Updated software yesterday overnight. Worked fine, impressed with the new pixel system, however when Y put to bed last night in garage 17.00 later found all lights on at 22.30pm and car still locked. Bizzare it was headlights, rears, interiors etc. All were off when car parked and locked...

    I would hope that Tesla agreed use of Tesla SC at normal tesla prices as part of the contract to use V4s. Giving them a small % of payments say, would increase their income at little extra cost and attract more Teslas than 65p ish/kW would ………………………

    OCTOPUS are an absolute (bad) joke - beware of dealing with them

    I had same after I switched and upgraded main fuse. Meter person got day/night wrong (prev ECO7) and first bill was through roof. Put real readings in to app manually, sent helo an email explaining and Octopus sorted it.

    Well with my setup if Octopus is set to be ready by 10.00 and Tesla 05.30 stop is on IO goes past the tesla 05.30 stop as IO controlling the charge. It’s the Octopus IO finish time that controls the stop time. The tesla stop time just stops the initial charge when plug in when using IO.

    Wiki Everything you wanted to know about Intelligent Octopus But Were Afraid To Ask

    Yep I have that set all the time. It’s just if you get extra time, say 08.00-09.30 then IO will override the 05.30 stop and I have set the inverter before bed to put house onto grid for that time period. Then IO moves it to another period through the night, inverter still puts house onto grid...

    New battery cost for a model 3.

    That’s very strange. Are the “new” ones poorly refurbed (in which case Tesla need better quality control) or just unlucky in the lottery of batteries? One thought is there an issue with the car they havent spotted which is degrading the batteries so fast? Conspiracy theorists would say they know...

    Well after 2 nights of fails IO worked fine last night as smoothly as usual till the last week or so. Nothing changed at my end. Only thing different was that the schedule changed through the night after charging had started at 23.30 at some point. If that’s going to be a usual thing now ( not...

    Phone off makes no difference I’ve found so long as smart charging was enabled before switching phone off. I’ve just started to have IO failing to charge car as well this past week despite a schedule being given etc after months of no issues and no change to my set up - Tesla YLR with Zappi2...

    Unreliable charging using Intelligent Octopus

    I’ve had that 2x in last 3 wks now. Plugged in and got a schedule, wake up and schedule still there and car not charged at all. Also had the opposite end of Dec car charged according to schedule but Octopus said I didn’t have a schedule and charged it at full rate. Sent Octopus photo of the...

    First winter. Wh/mi ouch.

    Essentially, in November, I used 150kWh to do 343 miles. So yeah, twice the battery capacity to cover the 'rated' WLTP mileage. That's roughly 180 miles max range on a full charge for my MYLR. City driving, very little motorway. Just done a 460 round trip over 3 days North to Midlands and...

    Snap. Just set the Grid First time to the saver session time and it exports for that period at inverter max less current house use(if no sun). Can also set SOC to a minimum allowed to discharge to if required.

    1. Tesla app set to off peak charging (05.30 if IO) and charge limit 2. Octopus app set to charge limit and time ready by 3. Zappi set to Fast mode 4. Plug in Tesla Off peak charge setting stops the sometimes long run of peak electric use while IO poles car and sets the plan.

    Yes I had this, email saying going to move to flexible tariff. Sent them email explaining that as its summer and the sun is out (mostly) the excess generation over house use more than covers the cars use. Hence little need to use IO unless off on a long journey. I switch the IO smart charge off...

    Just an update my nearly hourly IO start ahead of schedule has stopped. IO ran fine last night to schedule. Bizzare.

    Octopus Energy, including Intelligent and go

    I’m getting IO starting charge ahead of the planned schedule. Usually about 1 hr after setting the schedule. Stop everything, unplug and rest then does same again. So switch it all off and set charge with tesla app instead. No issues for months prior to this.

    Depends on your area. here in NE 40p and 10p at present for new users of IO

    Octopus Energy, including Intelligent and go

    Current Go rates are 40.6p peak and 12p off peak last I looked. If you shift charging etc to the 4hr off peak plus washing etc etc then you should make saving. More if you have battery storage to charge at off peak rate then use through day. All depends on your overall use and how much you can...

    30 seems the default invoice mileage. Mine had 7 on when collected. Think it allows for some more distanced movements to transporters etc.
