Can I still manually charge my vehicle?

Yes. Manual charging is still available when needed. Once your vehicle is plugged in, a Boost option will appear on the main Dashboard screen. Selecting Boost will immediately begin charging outside of your smart schedule.

Other commonly asked questions

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 can I see on the Dashboard?

Your Dashboard shows charger status, charging history, connected devices, recent charging sessions and reward balances.

Am I eligible for flex charging rewards?

Customers must have a compatible waEV-charge charger, a SMETS2 smart meter installed and communicating correctly, an eligible dual rate electricity tariff and a compatible charging setup connected to waEV-smart.

What is a Standard Install, and what does it cover?

Standard installation covers installation of your waEV-charge EV charger on a brick or plaster wall, a maximum run of 10m of cable from the wall-mounted position to your consumer unit (fuse box), with no civil or remedial electrical work required.

What if my firmware update fails?

Please ensure your charger is connected to WiFi, your phone remains nearby during the update and you wait the full 5 minutes after confirmation. If issues persist, please contact waEV-charge support.
