    OHME charger

    So I now have the OHME charger. I choose OHME purely because Octopus needs it if you want Octopus Intelligent tariff. Now the problem with OHME is, it is too intelligent !!! It will charge my car to 98% and then stops. I assume in order to preserve the battery. Now, as we know LFP batteries...
