I would definitely like to see a setting where you can set a value as an acceptable difference in price. (For example €0.02) to start charging earlier. As an example. electricity price is as below and the departure time is 7:00:
0:00 €0.184
1:00 €0.154
2:00 €0.159
3:00 €0.176
4:00 €0.151
5:00 €0.152
6:00 €0.198
The car is connected with an SoC of approximately 68% and the limit is set to 100%. Jedlix calculates that it will take 2 hours to charge and schedules loading from 4:00 AM to 6:00 AM. However, at the same time other devices are turned on and the load balancing of the charging station is switched on and charging is slower than expected. The result is that the car has an SoC of 91% at 6:00 and must continue charging between 6:00 and 7:00. With the setting of an acceptable difference of, for example, €0.02, the car had already loaded a large part between 1:00 and 3:00 and any remainder between 4:00 and 6:00, but this meant everything was charged in cheap hours.
