I’m having issues with the “at home” condition. I’m using it as a condition for morning pre-heat, but the card keeps failing.
In the Tesla app, the car is shown to be at my home adress, but in homey it only shows the street name.
When my Tesla is charging somewhere else, Homey still counts the power that the Tesla is charging with in its Energy overview. Would be great if Tesla Smart Charger somehow is able to detect if I’m loading out of home (Location based? By comparing with Youless? Can Homey talk with the Tesla Wall Charger?). I have Homey Flows to warn me if my power consumption comes close the maximum my house allows me - so I can switch off some stuff (I have electrical heating).
I would also appreciate if Tesla Smart Charger could change the charge amp value (its possible in the Tesla app). That way I could also lower the charge speed if I charge at home and I am using too much power.
Hi Balmli,
Thanks for your response. I didn’t see yet that I could set the charging current, its great!
For the first thing, I can indeed start charging only if I’m home, but that would probably prohibit me from charging on other locations. I’m only refering to the car charging’s power adding up to the power usage that Homey is tracking. I would like to only count the Tesla power usage when I’m actually using my Wall connector.

Hi,
I’m trying automatic charge but I can’t get it to work. Does data fetch need to be enabled? When I connect the charger, nothing happens. App was in Automatic mode when I tried.
