I don’t have Tibber and charging is only controlled by Piggy Bank. ---

Not sure what it can be, but I would check the operator setting in Easee (in the Easee app on android/apple or [portal.easee.com](http://portal.easee.com)), and set it to Easee if it is set to something else. Then go to the debug setting in the Piggy app and enable logging for the easee controller to see if anything shows up there that could help localize the issue. ---

I already have Easee. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/a/5/a5c214c5241ab82f39d489b01a0d265db0825ee5.png) ---

After a lot of testing the last day’s with a lot of overshooting the set tariff 10KW things start to become stable . Solution for charger issues: 1. @luguber gave good input from the [portal.easee.com](http://portal.easee.com/) → Tool → Operator (remove any other opperator ex timmer as my was linked to) 2. Verify that the charger is not at the bottom of the list **Modes and priority** (as it was for me when i went over to v0.22.14) i moved it to top 30% of controlled devises. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/e/8/e8897be25a5237a3d05fe90e744e59b19407a5cc.png) But I still have some unsolved issues: **Actual power** usage is often 80% higher than **Offered power** on the charger. And if offered power is 0 it still charges at 4.8 kw. Only times it stops the charging is if the **offered power** is 4 Kw. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/d/8/d8f6e3e3ddadeeab5cf3b467fa41d6e10c21196a.png) This can also be seen on the Piggy bank **free capacity** is 0 w for a whole hour. But still the usage is stable at around 6kw ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/0/d/0d048b4660fba0935078fa4e2c8bb56a2b88863d.png) i hope that this can be support for some and input for some updates later on. ---

Just a thought, is perhaps your Piggy charge controller set to 1 phase while the rest of your system is 3 phase? ---

Check what luguber said. If the charge controller also is set as 3 phase, try changing the “Free capacity treshold” from 50% to 100%. I must confess I don’t fully understand the feature and the example given inside the app. The example mentions EV-car charging outside of the app. But I believe the separate car charger controller is still inside the app…Anyways, my threshold is set to 100% and I don’t have any irregularities to report ---

Just to be sure you’re on the same page. > [@Awangens](#): > > Thanks for suggestion, in the Easee app it has set as auto, changed this to fixed 3 phase. This reads as you checked your settings for the Easee app on your phone, or the Easee app on Homey. But what we asked you to do, since you’re on the Test version of Piggy, which have a separate Charging controller/tile. This also have/needs details about your setup. It’s actually possible to have your “Piggy home” set up as 3 phase, but your “Piggy charging controller” set as 1 phase. So you should check if THAT is configured as 3 phase or not. And check all your flows for what data you send to Piggy. Piggy only needs one hook for reading your metre inside the main app. The charge controller needs none if you’re set up using “auto” ---

Hi sorry for leaving this out hence I am not able to change this settings in the separate charging controller when the controller is available. It only mirrors the charge setting defined in Easee app. Not showing the setting I initially defined when installing the charge controller. ![IMG_0180](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/5/3/5339d074fbc560ba9b7b998e43df7017f5a1fe6f.png) I removed the device and I see now that when add it again I have the option of selecting 1 or 3 phase ![IMG_0182](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/8/f/8fecbf329d0b68c9b9f725a53d359290ce5c3bdf.jpeg) But there are some issues/open questions/suggestion here: 1. not possible to change from 1 to 3 phase without deleting and adding the charge controller again. 2. what is master of phase control, is it the input from Easee app setting or charge controller setting defined when installing the charge controller? 3. there are tree options in Easee app, auto based on feedback from car, 1 phase or 3 phase. 4. for next rev off app it would it be possible to mirror the supported charger phase setting ( in my case use auto on charger, so the charger selects based on what the car supports. Then reflects this back to the charge controller) ---

Sadly not, I did set both as 3 phase with the same result: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/3/1/3110ffb6b0513d141f4c199210422c8d4ffd777d.png) Will do it again and set it 1 phase as see if that has any impact. Another thing I have had to do is to create a flow where homey check every 30 min if there are more than 0 w in free capacity on the Piggy Bank controller. IF there are no free capacity it restarting the app. This fixes the free capacity and heating and charging consumables are back to normal state not frost guard. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/f/f/ffb2639a872358158c0b35a30b7369c0c280bbed.png) Based on that I have 11 floor heating controllers and a charger I have also found out that it was required to set the time window smoothing to 300%, to be able to get any heating in the room that was sub 50% in the priority list. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/8/f/8fbbdb330afc3b20c9238b7e1bf2f7f73409d366.png) ---

Maybe there is an issue with 3 phase charging, its still awaits confirmation that it is working properly. Myself I use 220V 1 phase, and have no issues with this configuration. > [@\[APP\]\[Pro\] Piggy Bank](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-piggy-bank/66677/916): > > NOTE for users of the test version: A big update will be launched night to Saturday the 6th of April. The update will contain a completely different way of controlling car chargers. I have kept the old flows for charging in there so nothing is supposed to break, but the update has a lot of risk added due to the rewrite so I urge you to please take notice so you are sure your car is being charged in case anything should fail with the update. This version is likely to stay as a test version for… ---

@frodeheg I have a feature suggestion: Make it possible to change price management mode by flow. Or make an option to toggle between automatic/disabled based on a selected price threshold. Whichever is easiest to implement. The idea being that if the electricity price is below a certain value you don’t need to consider expensive levels and throttle down heating etc. i.e. if the price is below 0,5NOK pr.kWh for all future hours, there is no need to calculate expensive or extreem limits. And also, perhaps another limit for price difference threshold. Idea for this is that if the price difference for the future hours are less than a set limit, all hours will be considered normal. Some days have more or less the same price for all hours, and then it is also not needed to calculate expencive hours. ---

I set PiggyBank to charge car with 70kw last night, and hour limit is 10kwh. Why did my easee charger limit the power so the car did not complete charged? It hade lot of power left before the hour limit. ![1000007191](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/5/4/5497d6178abf7d5b524da319a87dcda936123158.jpeg) ![1000007190](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/c/e/ce854fc871e8ad35523459e9353a9b73207acef9.jpeg) ![1000007187](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/3/0/30859ff4a74ca4eafae94e726d442d6cb8df1367.jpeg) ![1000007188](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/c/6/c6574323bf001acc481745f80bad609319d13be5.jpeg) ![1000007189](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/0/9/09c14f4863e44ed372bad87b670e2c3d0bc327e9.jpeg) ---

I don’t think this is necessary anymore, and was also probably the wrong approach.

My heat pump is being turned off by the app every now and then, and I don´t understand why…? In all the modes the heat pump is set to “Always on”, and when it comes to price-points, it´s only set to adjust temperature, never turn on or off. So why is it turned on and off several times each day…?
