How to delay charging on my Ohme Home Pro?

If you are wanting to only charge in between your off peak times, this can be done in the app by enabling your price cap:

  1. On the ‘Charging’ page in the Ohme app, tap ‘Price Cap’
  2. Turn the toggle to ‘ON’
  3. Tap ‘Confirm’ to finish.

If you would like the charger to put in as much charge as possible during these times, you can turn off ‘Dynamic Charging’ on the Charging page of the Ohme app, or set the charging amount to 100% with a ‘Ready by’ time for when you want to unplug the charger. 

For more information on charging at your off-peak times, please see this help centre article: How can I charge at my off-peak times? – Ohme EV (ohme-ev.com)

My Home Pro is offline

If your charger is offline, or has not been linked to an Ohme account, you can set a charging delay manually via the charger.

Step 1

If your charger goes offline, as soon as you plug in Ohme will start a Max Charge and begin charging immediately.

Tap ‘Stop’ to pause charging or ‘Delay Charge’ to choose how long you’d like Ohme to wait before charging can start.
