Intelligent Octopus Go - limited beta
Have a minor niggle with WW ending smart charging sessions.
My Octopus charging session was scheduled to end at 07:00 this morning and WW picked up all the various changes through the night without issue...
My daughter unplugged her car at 06:49 this morning (before the scheduled end time and whilst still charging) and WW almost immediately ended the session, reverting back to GE battery powering the house, rather than waiting until the 5min slot before 07:00 to swap things back.
Now, it's only 10mins in this instance, but I suspect if she'd unplugged at 06:31 something similar may have happened, meaning I'd have had half an hour of battery draw when it could have still been grid draw at 7p/kWh.
Could you have a look please @admin as WW appears to be picking up the wrong end signal in this scenario? TIA

Thank you for enabling this function for me. All good so far - lots of extra charging slots for my home battery. I will check my bill at month-end to see if they were charged at the 7p rate! One query - I notice that, at the start of the process, an instruction is sent to set my reserve at 4% overriding my setting of 9 or 10%. Is this an essential part of the process? I normally like to keep a small reserve to ensure some systems keep running in the event of a power cut. Thanks again.
