L series EV Charger - Octopus smart tariffs

[greensolarostrich]

Hello All!

Just got my first EV and the idea of the Fox EV charger all being in one app seems pretty neat!
However it seems at the moment, there is no smart tariff integrations.

I called Fox and they said it should support it, but the Octopus site say 'no'.

Just wondering if anyone has one and got it working or if there has been any word on support from other area of Fox?

We won't be doing much charging and I was thinking of staying on the Cosy tariff as out ASHP will use more power than we need to charge, so I may be able to make do. But just wanted to check first if there had been any existing discussion about Fox's EV chargers.

Thanks!

The best chargers for solar integration and intelligent tariffs are the Hypervolt and Zappi, they are well supported and have an excellent support track record.

The best you can get to work is the basic go tariff and doing a scheduled charge between 00:30 and 05:30. It’s a good charger but still has a way to go! I replaced mine with a Hypervolt when I moved to OVO as I qualified for their 20p SEG export tariffs and for their EV charging add ons the fox isn’t supported.
