Status keeps stating "charging" after charging is done, but still plugged in #18

I noticed that the status only changed from "charging" to "available" after physically disconnecting the cable. I guess this is probably something on the Shell side which can't be fixed.

Not a deal breaker for me though as I am able to monitor the battery SOC with an ODB plug and can use that to detect if the charging has finished.

The status comes directly from Shell and is the same text that's on their website. I think what's shown depends on the charger and the car itself-- mine is plugged in but not charging at the moment but gives 'Available'. I get 'Occupied' if I have started a charge with Shell but the car hasn't started drawing power.
