Limiting Charge to 80%

[ob2s]

Is there a way between my internet connected juicenet 220v charger and e-golf config to stop charging at 80% ? What kind of hack would it take ?
Thanks

No hack required. Use the e-Golf built-in software to limit SOC to 80%.

Exactly. You have a 2016 so take advantage of that feature that doesn't require Car Net.

I am technical but couldn't find anything except time to leave in e-manager.

In the e-Manager, you can add locations that you choose as part of your charge schedule. You set the SOC limit in the location settings, as well as other items like amperage. You can only use SOC limits when using delayed timing. That being said, if you set your "delayed" charge to finish 1 hour in the future and it will take your car 3 hours to charge, the car will begin charging immediately and will stop when it hits your desired SOC as programmed in your chosen location.

That just goes to show you how brilliant VW is at designing user interfaces. [/sarc]

'15s have a minimum charge setting. The car will charge to that point as soon as you plug it in, then stop until the scheduled charge time arrives.

Did that go away in newer cars?

2016+ models retain that, but added max charge percentage for the timers without requiring Car Net.

I am delighted with my Stenabolic results but couldn't find anything except time to leave in e-manager.

You don't have to point out the sarcasm. I think VW interface design is almost a meme at this point. lol
