I've always used the ismart app to schedule charging and it has worked perfectly. Today I had a zappi fitted by octopus. They have failed to connect it to the Internet (long story). So how do I now schedule charging? I can't use zappi app because I can't add the zappi to it without a connection...
Hi all,
My Zappi charger keeps displaying a “lock error” and then refuses to charge the car, even though it had already been charging for around 30 minutes before the fault occurs.
An engineer has already been out a couple of months ago and replaced some components on the front of the unit...
Since purchasing a 2nd hand MG4 LR Trophy 6 months ago, I have always had problems with charging.
Always seems to happen when using the Zappi home charger.
The car would randomly stop charging around 30 mins in most of the time... but sometimes charge fully with no issues.
I sent it back to...
Interesting numbers from my first month with the Zappi.
The Zappi used 245 kWh over the period (including a 7-100% charge) that being a mix of IOGo, solar and peak rate. In total we consumed 498 kWh, purchased 345 (£68), generated 428 kWh (4kW array on FiT, £98 income),consumed 152kWh of the...

I'm currently trying to figure out a charging it's between my MyEnergi Zappi and my 2024 MG4 Extended Range
I previously had a Nissan leaf that had no issues. I've got Solar panels and a house battery fitted. The Zappi is running in Eco+ mode meaning that once the house battery is charged, if...
Hi,
Charger: Zappi V2
Zappi Scheduled Charging from the MyEnergi App, schedule is 2am to 5am 7 days a week.
Nothing setup in the MG4 or iSmart
On Octopus Flux Tariff so there is no automation or Octopus taking over charging like on Intelligent Go etc.
So, to charge I just plug the MG4 into the...
As per the title, despite being a strong advocate of using the granny before buying a 7kW EVSE, I've ordered a Zappi. I'm interested in learning any tips for maximising solar excess (I'm on the FiT scheme), whether the Zappi will do a full (10-100%) balance charge. in the summer I hope to do the...
Hi. I have a Zappi WiFi-controlled charger and when charging my MG5 Trophy direct from solar panels, the charging starts and then at some point cuts out.
I raised with Zappi/MyEnergi and got the following reply.
It looks like when the car is charging with solar and the sun goes behind a cloud...
Having trouble charging at home with zappi and IO go, sometimes no issues at all but recently zappi appears to think battery is full and will not charge car. No charge schedule on car. Any ideas? Zappi has been updated to latest firmware.
Hi all, So been about a month now since venturing into the EV route and so far enjoying the experience of my MG4.
One question I hope someone can help with.
I have a Zappi on IOG, all working fine, how do you know if the charge instigated by IOG has balanced charged the battery?
Does IOG it do...
I use the scheduled charging on my Zappi to only charge between 00:30 and 05:30. However, I have noticed after a long drive it starts at the correct time but the car seems to be able to override the finish time until it reaches the battery %age desired (whether that is 80% for day to day or 100%...
My Zappi charger has been in situ for about 2 years with no issues until i invested in a 5.2kw Giv Energy home battery to go along with my existing solar panels. I'm on the Intelligent octopus go tariff from 23:30 to 0630 for car / home batttery charging. I choose eco + charge on the Zappi, the...
Does anyone know why my MG5 trophy (facelift) limits charge to 1.5 kW on sunny days? I’m guessing it is something to do with overheating somewhere along the lines, but surely this is ridiculous as that’s the whole point in solar panels, a home charger and charging a car… Is that it charges the...
Morning all,
I have IO and a Zappi v2, smart scheduling has been working flawlessly for 18 months on our XC90 T8 PHEV.
We've now got an MG4 Xpower and smart charging will not work at all. Plug the car in and the schedule is created but never starts.
There's no scheduling set in the car and I...
Charged my MG4 yesterday from 37% to 100% but after a couple of hours I lost the FAST charge and it resorted to a 1.4 incoming charge from the normal 7.1.
I tried again and the same thing happened.
This morning I've plugged in again and so far (1/2 hour) it seems fine again.
The only thing i...
Hiya
Got my MG4 on Monday and really enjoying so far, few pain points but learning.
Current biggest concern is the charging, I had a leaf with the exact same setup and that worked as it should, but now with the MG4 in the picture having a problem.
Basically my Zappi charger is set to Eco++...
So for the past two nights, my OIG charge schedules have been kinda messed up.
When I plug the car in it does the usual waiting for surplus thingy in Eco+ mode. When the charge schedule starts, the Zappi starts charging then stops saying "waiting for surplus" then kicks in again momentarily then...
I bought a Zappi which arrived today and contacted my electrician to let him know we decided to go with that over a Wallbox. He said that he did some research and we will have to have a separate consumer unit added to drive the charger, due to the need for a surge protection device. Quoted an...
