How to migrate from TeslaSolarCharger to evSolarCharger

Support for TeslaSolarCharger is ending. The same functionality and more is in a new project evSolarCharger. New functionality will only be added to evSolarCharger in the future.

Currently, the same charging logic is used for both TeslaSolarCharger and evSolarCharger, except that evSolarCharger can also support OCPP entities. OCPP support is in beta testing.

To migrate from TeslaSolarCharger to evSolarCharger,

1. Install the evSolarCharger Blueprint.

2. Reuse existing TeslaSolarCharger helpers, and create 2 new evSolarCharger helpers, eg.

Settings > Devices & Services > Helpers > Create Helper >

Number: MyEV publish car charge limit
Number: MyEV charger minimum current

The following are existing helpers for TeslaSolarCharger,

Toggle: MyEV set daily car charge limit
Toggle: MyEV secondary power source
Number or template sensor: MyEV power offset
Toggle: MyEV stop charging

3. Toggle off "Use OCPP API" and toggle on "Use EV specific API" in the Blueprint.

4. Turn off the old TeslaSolarCharger Blueprint.
