Not as yet, but had another conversation with Octopus, with someone apparently more knowledgeable than previous. Seems that it won't be possible to charge from excess solar as the Octopus app won't allow the Zappi to control anything once on the Intelligent tariff. Edited to add - only charger they claim compatibility with at present is Ohme. Hopefully others will follow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been following this in the forum because we've been planning to get a Zappi for a while. I believe the Zappi is about to be added to the compatibility list for intelligent octopus. I believe they're in final testing. That's only for the 6 hours of cheap charging though. I don't know what that means for charging the car using solar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSS Posted August 1, 2023 Author Share Posted August 1, 2023 For anyone else who's interested, I have it on very good authority that Zappi integration with Intelligent Octopus is expected to roll out in early September. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn’t seem to be? although I’m lucky that I’ve been accepted onto the second wave of 200 odd beta testers going live in the next 24 hours or so. The fact that they’re still going through testing very much suggests it’s not live as you said?🤷♂️ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you, it was an invitation to join the Beta test, and I've just connected 👍🏻 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSS Posted October 1, 2023 Author Share Posted October 1, 2023 First charge successfully completed last night. Interestingly, it chose to charge in three separate 30 minute blocks, with 3o minutes between each block. Seems it will only charge by the percentage you request, ie last night I requested it add 25% (as was already 70% charged) and stopped it stopped at 95%.
