The entity sensor.ev_smart_charging_charging
is intended to be used to turn on and off charging. In your case, you use this to control the charging via a car integration.
How do you want the charger to be controlled? Can you have it always active (since you control the charging via the car)?
At the moment I use a power outlet which is located close at the street, I control this outlet with a Shelly relay. Ideally I would like the outlet turn on when the charging starts (this works fine - controlled by EV smart charging) and turn off when I unplug my car (this also works fine - controlled by EV smart charging).
But when I have set the input_number.car_smart_charging_soc_target
to 80% my car is just continuing to charge. The sensor.ev_smart_charging_charging
stays active so it won't trigger to the car to stop charging.
So when switch.ev_smart_charging_keep_charger_on
is active the sensor.ev_smart_charging_charging
is not controlling the charging stop, it stays active when it reached the SOC target and the status will change to keeping_charger_on
.
At the moment I use a granny charger for charging my car. I like the feature to keep the charger powered when finished charging but it now doesn't work in the right way.
When I the 'EV Target SOC entity' to 80% the charge cycle is starting correctly. The switch.ev_smart_charging_keep_charger_on gets activated and using the sensor.ev_smart_charging_charging entity I start the charge cycle with my car integration. Using the examples when the sensor.ev_smart_charging_charging goes from on to off I can use my car integration to stop charging but this is not working. The entity sensor.ev_smart_charging_charging keeps active as long as the car is connected. This results in the car keeps on charging and stops at 100% instead of the selected target SOC of 80%.
Can you turn off the sensor.ev_smart_charging_charging and keep the charger activated? I think this should be the case in the status 'Keeping charger on' so sensor.ev_smart_charging_charging to OFF and the entity selected to 'Charger control switch' keep on ON.
