So we have had the FFE for a week now. Looking at the charging sophistication on the FFE versus my Tesla I was quite excited to try it out. And with June hitting, and the week coming along my power rates are going UP, and need to charge between 11pm and 7am.
I setup my home location as a default value charge. Added in all my power company informaiton. And plugged in the car last night. Myfordmobile.com showed my finish time of charging at 9:30am, and going to the first 1/4 at 6:30 am. Which is weird. Well sure enough the car didn't charge last night (or didn't charge much) and kicked in fully charging at ~6:40am.
Why did it do this. It says charging started at 11:01pm? I have a 32A EVSE (that gets over 240VAC under load) so power supply isn't a problem. My Model S can suck every single bit of charge coming from that plug, so it isn't the EVSE. Am I just going to have to manually enter my TOU rates and hope it sticks to that?
Also is there a way to see how much power the FFE is sucking from the plug? My Model S does that and it seemed somewhat useless, but with the FFE I can barely tell it is actively charging.
