charging_rate , max_charging_rate ... where is current charge rate ?

[aviadoffer]

So the max_charge_rate is 48amp, which is what it's configured during install, not shown here but I don't need it anyway. charger._charging_rate is 14amp I can't figure what value is the 15amp (which is the current draw by the EV as it takes time to adjust), how does the app get it and I don't see it in the json returning ?

Ignore the 12amp showing, thats an app behind issue.

My car's not set up right now to test locally, but I believe the charging_rate should be the 15 amps (the max it'll do, as if you adjusted the slider) and max_charging_rate is the maximum set by the breaker (48 amps when on a 60 amp breaker). The actual charging rate is by asking for the device usage and passing just the gid for the charger, something like below. There's only one channel and only one entry in the dictionary, so you can omit the loops. If you want the most immediate value you can grab the seconds scale, just don't grab it too often (and scale the usage appropriately).

usage_dict = vue.get_device_list_usage('62626', datetime.datetime.now(datetime.timezone.utc), Scale.MINUTE.value, Unit.AMPHOURS.value)
for (gid, usageDevice) in usage_dict.items():
    for (channelNum, usageChannel) in usageDevice.channels.items():
        scaledUsage = usageChannel.usage * 60 # convert Ah used over the minute to average Amps
        print(f'{gid} - {channelNum} - {usageChannel.name} - {scaledUsage}A')

Awesome, I will take a look
