    If the charger supports OCPP (Open Charge Control Point), then it's fairly straight forward.... Yes, they do need to be on a separate breaker and isolator at the charger.... I've got mine connected via WiFi and I updated the Server URL to HA after installing OCPP through HACS. It allows me to...

    Is Afrihost currently down?

    This is 24 hours now on my side... With little to no idea how long it will still take to resolve... Never had issues with Afrihost before, but this is not acceptable.

    Is Afrihost currently down?

    Also received a Whatsapp apologising for the intermittent service... That does not help me much since it's not intermittent... It's non-existant since 16:00 yesterday.

    Dual activation - H/A(sonoff or similar) and conventional remotes

    Not sure if this is what you are looking for, but you can trigger based on the Numeric state (I have this running, if my batteries numeric state is above 75% for 10 mins it turns on the pool pump). You can set the condition to check that the load is below 3kW. Hope it helps....

    Shelly Smart Home Products!

    That is just the thing... I am running on inverters / Solar / etc, so little or actually no power dips... I have removed the unit as well to check, but it's seems bricked.

    Shelly Smart Home Products!

    Anyone ever had a Shelly Dimmer (or any other Shelley product) that is just unresponsive? It worked for months and the all of a sudden it does not connect to the network, or advertise itself. I followed the instructions to reset it, but still unable to do anything with it.
