    Emergency Exit

    One of these: https://amzn.eu/d/825xxsE Have used one to shatter glass in an emergency. Does work. A (last minute) stocking filler. Goes on a key ring so potentially always with you when out with your car. No idea why the Amazon associate thing has appeared. Just pasted the link from the...

    OVO Have Kicked Me Off Anytime

    Now on Eon, the dynamic charging option on the Ohme charger no longer works. No matter what I set, the charger wants to put as much charge as it can into the car in 24 hours, only limited by the ‘price cap’ feature where charging is prevented outside of the off peak hours. Had to manually enter...

    OVO Have Kicked Me Off Anytime

    Reminded me to update this thread. Switch to Eon now complete and on the Next Drive tariff. So took around a week in total and not two. Have to give credit to Eon after a shaky start. Still not heard about the £75 though. OVO have already paid the credit back on my account with them.

    OVO Have Kicked Me Off Anytime

    I’ve chosen Eon Drive having been with OVO. Not going particularly well. They are having trouble communicating with my smart meter for the switch to their variable standard tariff and have then stated it will be a further two weeks to be switched again to their EV tariff once they get it...

    iSmart not connecting today?

    Tried again this morning around 6am. No joy. Drove to work, about 15 miles. Parked up. No joy. Just tried again, about 2pm. Now working. 🤷‍♂️

    iSmart not connecting today?

    I know there are other threads….. Anyone else having difficulty with ISMART connecting to the car today? Had it all morning. Trying to keep an eye remotely on the charge level in the car as slow charging but having no joy. Have tried the lock and unlock trick but had put the car on charge...

    Intelligent Octopus Q's

    So adding about 50% to the battery for 6am, having plugged in the evening before, would mean IOG always uses the off-peak time with the OHME providing close to maximum delivery as it would achieve this within the off-peak hours? Or would you still get early evening cheaper rates at the whim of...

    Intelligent Octopus Q's

    Like others, I have a OHME home pro charger, am with OVO, and have been informed that come July, I can only charge at standard rates, not at 7p. I used to work night shifts but luckily do not anymore else this would become much more expensive. Looking to change to either Eon Next Drive or IOG...

    MG4 Trophy map update – BEWARE

    Managed to download from https://iov-mapmg.soimt.com/#/downloadMap yesterday. Assume the server is intermittent. However I am getting a MD5 checksum error when attempting to update in the car. Whole process of downloading, unzipping and copying to a USB stick took over 5 hours for me so I’m...

    A wireless carplay adaptor that actually seems to work reliably?!

    I’m finding that when using google maps, after about 30 minutes, the head unit reverts to the main screen and I cannot get CarPlay back unless I unplug the adapter and re-insert though the audio navigation commands still work as if CarPlay is connected. This only happens when using the wireless...

    MG4 Trophy map update – BEWARE

    I cannot download maps from here: https://iov-mapmg.soimt.com/#/downloadMap Nothing happens when clicking next with my VIN entered and ignoring the fingerprint upload. Happens using Edge and Chrome browsers. But I get the option to download from here: https://www.mgmotor.eu/owners/user-manuals...
