Hi everyone, With your help responding to the EV survey sent around in November, I’ve been hard at work splitting electric vehicle chargers into different categories and detecting devices in each category. This week, we are releasing the first EV devices for the Tesla Model S! Most but not all of t…

Aha, sorry, thought it was the 3 that was recognized and the S that wasn’t. Had it mixed up. And yes, I’d be interested in working with support, sure. I’m just surprised others with Volts above reported their cars being discovered literally within days of the roll out, but myself, not so much …

For any in the same situation as me (2 identical EV’s) the followup to my ticket was that, unfortunately, this really complicates detection, so it may explain my experience. Although the tech guys said they would look into things, long story short, it sounds like I shouldn’t hold my breath.

This doesn’t just apply to EVs. I have 2 identical HVAC units and get the same issue. I don’t see any logical workaround at this time.

I’ve been using my 240v EVSE to recharge my i3 for all of the 4 months I’ve been using Sense (and another 17 months before that). During those 4 months I’ve recharged roughly 75 times, but still no recognition. I guess I just need to be (more) patient.

Yes, I worked with Support many months ago, but there was not a lot they could do at that time. So I keep waiting, and looking at the app, and hoping. That’s where some of my frustration comes from. I went ahead and reset the data on my device. I’m curious to see if that will help. I know longer re…

@RyanAtSense this may have been mentioned but just in case it hasn’t I am a new Sense owner have had it in stalled for about 8 days, and it has found about 5 things so far, Nice! (downstairs HVAC, upstairs HVAC, Phillips Lights, Garage door opener, and Fridge). Bottom Line Up Front : when talking a…

Thanks for the input, Rich. This has been discussed a bit more at length above. While part of the backend work involving EVs does necessitate a lower sampling rate, it’s ultimately not that simple. We wish it were! Many other devices operate within similar wattage and duration parameters, so there’s…

Are there plans to add Prius Plug in or Prius Prime?

[image] RyanAtSense: The core differences between EVs are in the cars and not the EVSEs, so charging station should not make a difference to detection (as long as it’s 240V). I hope this is the case for I am using a European Myenergi zappi EVSE. FYI, it charges variable to the sun’s output. I…
