I just took delivery of my 75D 3 days ago, and the whole family is loving it. I have a question about scheduled charging. Car owners set this for the purpose of only charging during off-peak time, however it only has start time and not end time, and really isn't a "schedule". So that creates two problems:
Say the peak time on my TOU rate is noon to 6pm on weekdays, off-peal are all other times (6 pm to noon next day, and all day on weekends), so the best I could set the schedule is to have it start at 6pm.
Problems:
1. If I plug it in after midnight, it will not immediate start charging, but wait 18 more hours and starts at 6pm.
2. If I plug it in at 11:30PM, it will start charging, that's great, but it will not stop automatically at noon the next day (when my TOU enters peak time rate)
I feel from all others things I've learned about my Model X so far, this is something that could have and should have been improved.
