Octopus Go Charging

Actually, you get paid to use ev.energy which could offset the cost of TeslaFi...

You get points for charging your car, 20 points and you get a £5 Amazon voucher. I've had £10 of vouchers so far in around 5 months of usage. I don't use the car for commuting so suspect if you did (as you would charge more) you'd probably get £5 per month.

That's a game changer. I didn't realise that. I wonder if I can get it to work with my wife's Kona?

Conclusion is ev.energy is fine for what is needed. TeslaFi is even better but is not free.

A converted TeslaFi referral gets $5 credit which equates to 1 months worth of subscription.

But there are a few fast fingered cohorts on here that you are up against when someone requests a code - I think they must be on holiday as one referral request recently went over an hour without comment

It only works with Tesla's unless you have a specific make of home charger with one of the vehicle makes on this page:

EV Owners - ev.energy

I can't remember which type (or types?) of chargers work though.

Rolec chargers work with ev.energy.

I'm using it with an EO Mini Pro. Only tried one scheduled charge when I set it to charge the car when the Agile rate was below 4p Kwh and it worked a treat.
