Tesla Model 3 and Zappi charger

[AmphySuperTram]

Hi guys, I'm encountering problems with the Zappi charger, installed few days ago.

In FAST mode everything works correctly. In ECO the charge self stopping randomly and seems to start again alone after I open Tesla app or Zappi app.

Someone with same problem? It's annoying because I would charge with solar when it's producing and continue to charge with grid when sun goes down.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

I am not familiar with that brand charger, nor with charging infrastructure in Italy. I would suggest also asking the question in the subforum here that is dedicated to Italy. Maybe someone there might know more about local charging for you, etc.

Hello
I have a Model 3 and Zappi 2. I find (although I haven’t tried it for a while) that Eco+ doesn’t work when the output from the solar panel falls below 1.4kW (Zappi requires a minimum output of 1.4kW) repeatedly. The Zappi is fine but the Tesla doesn’t like the continual on/off and stops the charging, I had to physically unplug the cable and plug it in again to get the charging to restart. Now, I have the Zappi on Eco (with maximum solar input), which means it will use the grid to keep the current at 1.4kW, and all is well. I have set the Tesla to start charging at 09:00 and the “Stats” App to stop the charging at 16:00 to maximise the chance of solar being used.
Not perfect but it works.

I'm in ECO mode, don't use ECO+ because I know is bit annoying.
It's ok ECO for me, but I don't know why the charge self stops.

You are probably better off checking with MyEnergi or associated forums directly. However, I have seen similar problems that have been fixed with firmware updates from MyEnergi.
