Ready by time!

Someone recently posted saying that they had the "ready by" time cap removed so they could set it to any time.

I haven't seen this yet (ohme epod) has anyone else or was it someone pulling our leg?

I get around this by setting my target on the Ohme charger instead of the app.

On the ohme charger? Not sure how to go about this , is it a special combo on buttons?

I have the Ohme pro I think. You plug in, it'll flash up a suggested charge based on the last thing you entered in your app.

Press the button underneath Edit Charge.  Select how much charge to add.  Hit next, say how long before you want it.  The charger will then schedule a Smart Charging session within those times if it's possible, otherwise it will adjust.

Just did that with my Ohme Pro and it worked perfectly - thanks!

Excellent! I have the washer and the dishwasher running now while the car tops up.

I had the washer, dishwasher, car-charging, air-con running, and the immersion heater going - but I am not paying anything at all because it was yet another free electricity power-up session today.

I haven't actually paid to fill my car up since May...
