Other commonly asked questions

What if I don’t want to utilise smart scheduling, how can I still use the charger?

If smart scheduling is disabled, you can simply just plug the cable into the vehicle, and it will start charging until it’s either unplugged or fully charged. Additionally, you can still have smart scheduling enabled so you get all the added benefits of security functionality, but you just utilise the ‘boost charge’ function which will then charge the car immediately if plugged in.

My smart charging isn’t starting.

Please ensure your charging schedule is active, your tariff settings are correct and your vehicle does not have conflicting charging timers enabled.

What should I select if I’m on a Smart tariff?

If your energy provider requires full control of charging sessions, we currently recommend using the provider’s native smart charging functionality rather than waEV-smart scheduling.

Can I use waEV-smart alongside tariffs such as Intelligent Octopus Go or OVO Charge Anytime?

No. Tariffs such as Intelligent Octopus Go, EON Next Smart and OVO Charge Anytime cannot currently be used in conjunction with waEV-smart smart scheduling or rewards. These tariffs require the energy provider to have direct control over charging sessions, which conflicts with waEV-smart scheduling functionality.

What is waEV-smart?

waEV-smart is the smart charging platform from waEV-charge that helps optimise your EV charging automatically, allowing you to charge during cheaper periods and potentially earn rewards through smart energy balancing.
