zappi
Does the Victron EV charging station offer beter system integration with a Victron system than a Zappi?
@Lucian Popescu (Victron Energy Staff)
A customer has a challenge in that his Zappi starts charging when his Quattro exports which is fine. However, when export stops, the zappi continues to charge and drains the ESS batteries.
Objective: 1. Have automated charging of the EV using ONLY excess PV during the day, but without constantly swithing on/off when excess PV is very little or fluctuating. 2. Set scheduled charging to charge from off-peak rates.
1. Will a Victron charging station overcome this Zappi problem being integrated with the rest of the Victron system?
2. Can scheduled charging be set in automatic mode?
