Intermittently functional
I started using this in November. It basically worked for the 1st two months, which was great since I had to pay $24 to my utility company to use it. During that time, it started the charge when usage was low, charged reliably, and automatically ended the charge in the morning. Unfortunately it just stopped working. If I plug the car in at 3pm, it just charges at the standard rate right away. So I am back to manually starting the charge before I go to bed and manually stopping the charge at 7 am when the rates go up. I was excited about signing on to this to use energy efficiently, but in the end it is an inefficient use of the electrical grid and of my own energy since I now have to stay up late in order to manually starting the charge, and get up early to manually stop the charge. Too bad, it was a good idea gone awry.
