“Last connected at” doesn’t update

+1 Same issue here

I see what I assume is the same issue. It says my "last connected at" is back in February, but also says it's online now, and I know for a fact that it's lost wifi connectivity at least once between then and now.

It seems to work properly when plugging in, but some time after the charging cycle is complete, it goes to "Unknown" status and stops updating.

The "Last Connected" entry in the logbook says it was in 1969, which may be a problem?

'Last Connected At changed to December 31, 1969 at 4:00 PM 2:34:48 AM - 3 minutes ago'

FWIW, here is my card configuration:

type: entities

  - entity: sensor.cph50_charger_state
    secondary_info: last-updated
  - entity: sensor.cph50_charge_cost

...and the info on the Chargepoint from the integration config screen:

CPH50-Hardwire-L23
by ChargePoint
Firmware: 5.5.3.13

Yah, it looks like the CharePoint API stopped returning the last time the charger sent a heartbeat/connected.

If someone wants to make a PR to remove the sensor, I’ll happily review and merge. I’m not sure if HA gives us an API to clean up the old sensor, but that would be great as well.

Caveat: I am not a developer. In any way, shape, or form. I hack at things until they "work". I've probably messed up more than I've ever fixed.

That being said, I've created https://github.com/mbillow/ha-chargepoint/compare/main...sxdjt:ha-chargepoint:main . Not even sure that is the right way of doing things.

Removed in lasted version, closing this out.
