[FR] Reduced charging current

[vlumikero]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be useful to be able to change between Reduced and Maximum Charging current, e.g. to be able to automate for different locations.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Additional context

[chrisandsally]

Yes, would love this too.

[corneel27]

This is also desirable when you want to charge in hours with cheap solar energy (but not more than the solar panels produce).

that is already working.. create a script like

carcurrent5a: alias: Carcurrent 5A icon: "mdi:ev-plug-type2" sequence: - service: volkswagencarnet.set_charger_max_current data: device_id: XYZ max_current: '5'

[chrisandsally]

Thank you for the example script. Please could you advise the value range of max_current? Thank you

my e-golf is able to make 5, 10, 13 and 16 Amps. Just check the setting in the car and create them or use the WeConnect app there you should be able to change the charging levels as well. I made it in this way:

[chrisandsally]

Wow, Great dashboard @acdcnow, love to know the script for the toggles and what mdi names for the icons. Is that a standard picture element card?

[corneel27]

Yes it is now working fine. Thanks @acdcnow

I would love to have the charging amps as a Control rather than the script. Why? Because with an automation like this one for Tesla i Can use the automation to only charge the Sun Power https://gist.github.com/Alphaemef/70f203cc6a5acb75d987ae88d9be2edf

Wird die Funktion Ladestromsteuerung in ein Update eingebaut?

[Fliegerstefan]

Vielen Dank für das Beispielskript. Könnten Sie uns bitte den Wertebereich von max_current mitteilen? Danke

Mein E-Golf schafft 5, 10, 13 und 16 Ampere. Überprüfen Sie einfach die Einstellungen im Auto und erstellen Sie diese oder nutzen Sie die WeConnect-App. Dort sollten Sie auch die Ladestufen ändern können. Ich habe es so gemacht:

@acdcnow . Can you disclose the yaml code how you did it with the left picture?
