Hi folks,
Our MG4 is almost here, collecting this weekend, hurrah!
I am wondering how I can best charge it. We have a Zappi 2.1. No battery or solar. I want to charge up to 80% on the car normally between 00:30 and 04:30 (Octopus Go), happy for it to suck as much juice as it can.
What's...
I've had an MG ZS EV since November, one of the newer models. I think it's commonly referred to as an mk2. I also have a Zappi 2 (untethered, though I don't think this makes a difference).
I've been happily using the Zappi to charge the car overnight. However, now that we are starting to get...
Zappi charging and cell balancing on LR
Hi, I’ve seen some threads saying that when you charge up to 100% a cell balancing routine will start. This typically consumes around 500w for maybe an hour or so.
However what I’m seeing on my Zappi is that when the charge reaches 100%, no further...
Any help would be appreciated.
I just installed a Zappi but no matter what I set it to it seems to start charging the car even if my MG4 schedule is not set to run until night.
Some background: I have a battery and small solar array that are not big enough for support a car.
The Zappi...
I was due to have a Zappi supplied and fitted on Monday, but my installer called today to say that because of the change in regs in December last year there's no stock of units that comply. The manufacturer Myenergi look like they're quoting a 4 week lead time on the Zappi, so it seems...
Just changed from old SR MG5 to MG5 Trophy. Zappi set to Eco+ for timer 00.30 to 04.30. Car timer definitely OFF.
Car did not charge stating
" Charge Delayed"
Any ideas please?
I don't know if this a thread or not. But I need to ask
I use my Zappi on eco++ mode and boost between 12.30am and 4.30am to charge my car. I set 80% in the ismart app. But when I check car in morning it's at 100%?
So I tried to schedule a charge via the app. I changed Zappi to FAST mode, set...
I'm have a zappi installed at home and will be moving to the Octopus Go tariff soon. Do I set the scheduled charging in the car or the zappi or both to make it charge in the cheaper rate period? Which of the car or the zappi should be the 'master' in terms of controlling the scheduled charging...
I'm having a wall charger installed by my electrician for my MG4 and he's offered me a choice of two chargers, Zappi or Project EV.
Has anyone any experience of either of these chargers particularly Project EV?
I use a friend's Zappi charger a couple of times a week. Using the in-car settings I schedule the Octopus friendly hours. This is preferable to the setting within Zappi as it doesn't interfere their charging.
So far, every time I've tried it I've had to fuss around as it keeps starting to charge...
Hi there ... new to the MG and charging. We brought the MG home about 2 odd weeks back. It has been charging OK as we have solar panels and it has been set to Eco+ on Zappi to take advantage of these. We have just over this weekend moved from Octopus Flexible to Octopus Go ... and we put a...
Hi there,
Wondering if anyone has had the same experience or suggestions.
We've been charging our mg5 quite happily using solar in the zappi eco+ mode for nearly a year.
The car had its first annual service a couple of days ago though and since that it seems to charge a bit but when I check...
I’ve been researching the home charging unit and it seems a lot of folk are choosing the Zappi charger.. would this be a decent unit to consider? I’ve also downloaded the Zap Map app. Watching lots of EV videos on YouTube.. it’s seems that charging anxiety is a major part of being an EV driver. lol.
Does anyone know if there is a minimum charge when using the Eco2 mode when using solar or wind energy
Or indeed if on a Zappi or similar anyone is successfully charging with low amperage.
Our car does very few miles weekdays, thus can spend a day(s) being slowly topped up for free( besides...
I have read that the Zappi charger changes the power that it gives the car depending on how much solar energy that is being produced by your house PV system.
I was just wondering is this okay for the car/battery to be constantly jumping around the power being applied to it, will this...
Hi all, this post may be of help to some, it’s about the ZAPPI EV charging unit and some of the things it does.
Normally I’m home a lot during the day so I use this unit to harvest as much solar energy as I can via my solar array and the ZAPPI, for those who may not know the unit has 3 modes...
Some MG5 members might recall my post regarding the purchase of a home charger (I won't mention the name here so as not to confuse this thread).
I'm now researching the myenergy zappi (and HUB) home charger. So am looking for advice from any MG5 EV Long Range owners who use it. I notice that...
Hi forum members, We recently had the Zappi charge point fitted and have had it set usually on ECO++ but I'm aware that it is constantly stop start with solar charging sun behind clouds etc, is this going to create any problems for the battery or the car or is this more a summer setting and...
I am hoping to go for the Go Faster tariff in November when my British Gas Fixed tariff ends.
Can both of these chargers charge on a schedule without issue?
Anyone got experience of either they'd be willing to share?
