Charging your vehicle should be as easy as driving it. That’s why Peblar built the most reliable, easy-to-use charger on the market. You can go out and explore the world today; we’ll be working on your next move. Are you ready?
Instructions
Add the device as you would add any device to Homey. A polling mechanism is used to update the status of the device in Homey based on the actual status of the device.
Donations
I enjoy creating apps for Homey and try to support them as best as I can. If you enjoy using my apps a donation in return for the time I put into this is much appreciated.
I installed the app and could succesfully add my charger. I still need to dig into testing the possibilities, but I noticed that it is currently not possible to set the charging current using flows/action cards. Is this something that could be added in a next version?
There is currently a charging limit of 16A, which is fine for my current use, but maybe for other users there might be a wish to have that value higher.
One question about the RFID-tag cards: how does that exactly work? Could that replace the need to use my physical charging card to start/stop charging sessions? If so, how do you determine the token of the RFID card?
Hi, I tried to add the charger using the home version, home plus and business - all seem to work. But all still give a maximum charging limit of 16A, while my charger supports up to 32A, single phase.
I added them using the current v.0.0.4 version of the app.
“physical charging card” : I have a card in the format of a visa card that contains the RFID tag. I have to hold that against the peblar device in order to be able to start and stop the charging session.
There is an action card “add RFID tag (token) with name (name)” –> I thought that using that , I could virtually scan the RFID card and thereby start or stop the charging session without the need to still hold the RFID tag against the device
Pending the delivery of my Peblar pro I got confused between this and the community app Peblar EV Charger | Homey
I see this one supports more features. I miss 1F/3F switching on both. Will the modbus api be supported as an enhancement? That one allows for some writable registers the api does not.
Although I think the local api specifies the update ev interface fields and force 1F is a field there right?
PATCH /evinterface { “Force1Phase”: true}
I also notice the start charging command. And you can manage rfids, but you can’t start using a pre registered rfid?
I just installed the Peblar. First part all seems to work.
Once it is authorized, I can start/stop and change strategies. I will test tomorrow how that works in my EMS behavior.
The autorize part is a bit more mysterious. Specially how to close the session, make the charger green again. Stop seems to be more a limiter than an unauthorize.
I try the solar only strategy this afternoon, I believe it will do auto 1F/3F switching, if that is the case that helps in the need for such an feature.
Hi,
I have previously used another app for Homey. Now I want to try to add a new device (Peblar) but when I try to find my charging box and use the password that I use to open the interface on my Peblar device, unfortunately it does not find any new devices.
Great that There is official app now which seems to have good possibilities. But since I installed is yesterday, I have the problem that it won’t start charging. (I have the Peblar business and it’s in managed mode, so I have to authenticate with an charge pas since it’s for my car from work)
when I scan the charge pas it detects it but noting happens next, the homey app gives the status of that it’s paused, but I can’t start it again via the homey app. Now I have removed the homey app and device, and everything is fine again. I scan the card, and it starts charging direct how I has always been doing.
what can be the problem? Is it an app problem, or do I need change something?
