If you want to program your charge for particular times, or set a specific amount of charge for Ohme to deliver, you will need to turn on the Dynamic Charging<\/strong> setting in the Ohme app. You can customise the charging requirements to suit your driving needs on the Charging page directly, or through Routines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Setting an amount of charge to ‘top up’ by<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you have not connected your Ohme account to your car\u2019s app account, Ohme will default to topping up<\/strong> your vehicle by an amount of charge, on top of any existing battery. To set the amount of charge you would like Ohme to top up by, follow these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. On the Charging screen in the Ohme app, enable Dynamic charging.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Set an amount of charge to top up your car by (on top of any existing battery).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Set the ‘Ready by’ time (this is when you\u2019d like the car to finish charging).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n

    <\/h4>\n

    In this example, Ohme will top up your car by 30% of the known battery capacity during the session. When you plug in, Ohme will assume the battery is 0%, however if your car already has 50% battery you will have 80% charge by the end of the session.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    You can keep these settings the same each time you plug in, or you can adjust them for each session depending on how much charge you want and what time you need your car to be ready.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    If you have signed in to your car app account when selecting your vehicle in the Ohme app (API integration), this will allow you to specify an amount you would like Ohme to ‘Charge to’ and allows for more precise charging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    We currently offer an API integration for the following vehicle brands: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
