Hi,
Has anyone successfully used an extension cable with their home charger?
I’m asking because my charger is at the back of my garage, where I currently charge my ZS EV. I’m soon replacing it with an MG S5, but the charging socket is at the rear of the car and my Ohme Home Pro cable isn’t...
Hi, has anyone replaced a EV charger? I had a pod point installed a few years ago by pod point, so all the electrics is ready and in place. There is nothing wrong with the pod point but I was wondering if I wanted to change the charger is it much cheaper now as everything is already in place and...
Good evening, and apologies for the late hour....!!!
I'm charging the S5 overnight....just checked the Ohme App and it's telling me it's charging at 7.03kW.....unheard of!!!!
My MG4 never charged higher than at 6.95kW.
Is this normal??? I have an Ohme Home Pro charger, and the S5 is specified...
Literally picking up my new S5 tomorrow.
I'm getting bits ready for the change - I have found how to unbind the MG4 from the MGiSmart app, but am not seeing how to unbind it from my Ohme Home Pro app - I can see the 'Manage my EVs' ok, and I've added the S5 already, but can't see a way to...
Hi all,
I use Home Assistant for Home Automation, and I have lots of things integrated including my Ohme Home Pro charger, Octopus Energy and Google Sheets.
I have created an couple of automations that trigger on an hourly and daily basis to calculate the amount of Energy put into the car...
So my iSmart app reads that the battery level is 71% - has anyone ever at this level gone ok add 30% and what would happen ?
Also what level do people recommend charging to: 75%, 80%, 90% or 100%? Just trying to understand before I lower the life of the battery.
[ Moderator: See also this thread on the same topic. We decided against merging the two.

So not sure if anyone else is on OVO Charge Anytime, but the bastards have decided that they will not communicate with the charger to...
I had an Ohme Home Pro installed yesterday by Octopus.
Whilst the charge point works and is connected via the Sim card I can't add the device to the Octopus app.
I set the charger account up using Google.
When i click on the sign in requested by octopus I get a blank screen
4 phone calls and...
Hi,
I have just placed an initial order for the Ohme Home Pro from Octopus and am now having a nagging doubt... My consumer unit and meter are in a cupboard in my hall and I reckon they will need to take the cable out the cupboard then through either the utility room or boiler cupboard to get...
have ohme updated their app so that no one can set price cap on intelligent octopus tariff ?
For a year I have been using the spend cap feature absolutely with no problems but it now looks as if I can’t do that any more. Anyone else have that issue?
The reason I do this is because it’s more...
I've been looking through a myriad of threads regarding the Ohme home pro and Octopus intelligent tarriff and the conflicting information is confusing. I'm hoping someone who is on it with a pre FL MG5 can clear things up for me before I purchase an Ohme Pro.
So I have a pre FL MG5 long range...
Afternoon all!
Quick one hopefully!
I've just had my home home pro fitted (finally) and I've come to set up the scheduled charge etc on the app. I've set the charge to finish at 80% by 5:30 (for when the off peak tariff ends) but it's charging now when I turn the schedule on, is this correct? I...
I have an Ohme Home Pro wall charger at home. The app allows scheduled charging. You choose the percentage charge you want and by when, and the app does the rest.
The MG4 also allows scheduled charging. I've set it via the infotainment screen to charge in the 2330-0530 window only, to match my...
I have searched for information here, but not found anything, so advice would be gratefully received.
Alternatively, if there is info here, please could you direct me to it?
I am struggling to understand how to charge the car with the above setup.
I have been advised to to set a price cap. I...
Hi all!
Incoming NEWBIE question. Never owned EV before.
I’m about to pull the trigger on a Pre facelift mg5. I’ve had a quote from octopus energy to have the ohme charger fitted and to move onto their 7.5p per kWh night tariff.
Has anyone here had any experience with the above charger /...
(Not sure whether the fact it's an MG4 is relevant, but it asks you to plug the car in while it tests, so maybe...)
I bought an Ohme Home Pro charger from Octopus themselves, specifically so I could have Intelligent Octopus.
Then I got a standard Octopus account and am currently on the...
Hi guys,
I have an MG ZS long range being delivered in September hopefully and I'm trying unsuccessful work out what the best charger would be in terms of compatibility with Mg and octopus energy. (Non EV tariffs at the moment)
I was doing the usual ohme home pro vs hypervolt vs wallbox...
hi , I have just had installed an ohme home pro with octopus when I set it to charge to 80% via app it says it can only charge to 53%/120 miles ( battery is on 42%109 Miles remaining already) I thought a 7kw charger charged at 25miles per hour charge, so that would give 6pff peak hours /120miles...
So we have just had an engineer around to do the Ohme Home Pro installation, and she has done a very tidy job. But as it sits on a side wall of the house I am finding the horizontal aspect of the type 2 mount on the tethered cable to be a bit of an eyesore the way it sticks out from the wall...
Hi all, I just wanted to see what KW other MG4 owners were getting with their OHME Home Pro (OHP)
I had the OHP 8m tethered installed with this configuration:
6mm Doncaster EV cable ~ 10m from the box.
100A into the house, 80A RCD Type A with a 80A Type C MCB.
Set at 32A max, with Load...
