6000 km / 1 Megawatt-Hour
Since the delivery drive in february we have travelled more than 6000 km with the electri car and used some 1 Megawatthour of electric power. Since we do not commute with the car the mileage per 100 km is lower compared to commuters.
The BITPlan - Charging Logbook - Software based on the Volkszähler-Java Frontend is intended to automatically import the the data from the car and charging control.
So far we have chared the vehicle 178 times with 24 times using a Chademo.
Installation
The Carport has a CEE blue 16 Ampere Socket installed. The ICCB of the Ion is connected via a Adapter which also has room for the Magnetschalter that switches to the 14 Ampere mode:
The Cabel including the plug can be put outside thru a whole that can be locked.
A magnet like it used for magnetic boards is strong enough to switch from 8 ampere to 14 ampere mode.
For the position of the magnets a bit of trial and error might be necessary.
External Socket
The housing is based on a Aldi-stainless steel medical housing from a clearance.
Wallbox

The Wallbox is based on SimpleEvSe and has a Raspberry PI which reads the data from the power meter and interfaces to the charge controller.
The Wallbox has its own Type-1 Cable.
The "Brick" may now stay with the car.
