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

    EVSE integrations are very quick, Tesla integration not so much. Manually stop the charge in the Tesla app after plugging in. Slightly annoying but it becomes second nature.

    You can refresh the app by doing the pulldown to see changes. They can happen all through the charging window but by 11/12 they are usually fairly well set. Ah it's a shame, I don't know about LuxPower. This is a sensational bit of software but they aren't on the list Other Inverters -...

    There's always a schedule, it's just that it can and does change frequently. What home battery do you have? There are automation options that can get around the moving schedule issue.

    I'm not sure what else to suggest. Perhaps disconnect your car from the Octopus app and go back through the onboarding wizard. At least then Octopus will confirm they can do the test charge (or otherwise).

    It's not about reinstalling, it's about Octopus having the right permissions to access the API. Is it showing in your Tesla account as per this post

    Have you gone through the steps to re-authorise the Octopus app with Tesla as outlined in Octopus' recent email? And if you did that, are you sure you gave the app the correct permissions? There's a post further up this thread where I helped someone alter the permissions after they misclicked...

    We need some more info to troubleshoot. What integration are you using? Tesla or EVSE? What EVSE do you have? Have you turned off ALL its smart charging features? Have you removed ALL schedules from the car and have set the max charge to 100%. Has it ever worked since the test charge?

    Yes it's supposed to be, but the point we're making is we are getting the streak email despite not doing any car charging.

    Do you happen to have a home battery? I've been getting the same email and I think the 10A overnight top up of the house battery is triggering the streak for me.

    I love how rattled you've become over this. You can't provide any cogent explanation other than a fit of pique for the decision to sack everyone then start rehiring them with days, so you've resorted to retorts a 5-year old would cringe themselves over.

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

    The issue with this approach is if there are a load of high carbon intensity slots early in a schedule and the system thinks you need a massive charge (it doesn't read your SoC with EVSE integration), then all that's happening is that you are charging unintelligently, just like regular Go.

    LOL, seems an extreme response for something which is very arguably "wear and tear". The dealership probably should have calculated the goodwill of a £20 part and you probably should have dissociated the decision of some jobsworth in a delearship from a global car manufacturer.

    Do you think firing 500 people was proportionate to "a temporary pause"? It was a petulant tantrum.

    Solar charging is dead for the time being on IOG and Octopus outgoing. There's no point when you can import for 7.5p and export at 15p

    Agreed. I think it's only available to apply for by phone and sometimes they pause new subs on to it completely so be prepared to wait.

    If Zappi/Ohme integration are anything to go by, then general speed and reliability of receiving a schedule will be greatly enhanced. Not having to rely on communicating with Tesla's API is a big draw.

    Octopus Electric Universe app/card and public charge points

    Yeah Electroverse are generally OK, but it's a tariff minefield. I imagine it's quite difficult to manage especially if a specific operator doesn't communicate price changes to Electroverse promptly, or they decide to offer their own exclusive tariff outside of any agreement.

    Worth pointing out as well that view will be coloured by exactly when you ordered it. I don't think I ever saw such an oscillation in the price delta between the LR and P in the time I was interested in ordering a Model 3. When I first got into the idea the price difference was £3k, then as...

    They've addressed a couple of key gripes of the old P which was the differentiation from the LR: Seats look good Adaptive dampers (potentially) good Still feel there was scope for them to add an exclusive colour, but overall I really like the look of it. PS Do not look at US prices 🙈
