SmartEVSE 3.6.3

If you want to build your own charging station for your electric car, you can usually save a lot of money. In that case, you will need an EVSE, for example the open source SmartEVSE from manufacturer Stegen. Various firmwares are available for this controller, such as the original from Stegen, or an alternative version developed by the community with all kinds of extra functionality. The latter was worked on by dingo35, known here on Tweakers, and he is actually the only active developer at the moment. Dingo35 has decided to fork the project and release it under his own management. Version 3.6. 3 has been released and the release notes since version 3.6. 0 look like this:

Release v3.6. 3

• We added AutoUpdate setting, so the SmartEVSE can update itself to the latest stable version automatically.
• Simplified downloading and flashing of both standard and debug firmwares, both from the SmartEVSE repo as from the dingo35 repo
• We no longer limit the ChargeCurrent to MaxCircuit when in Normal Mode with Power Share = Disabled
• Lots of flash memory saving changes to prepare for a nice change in the near future!

Release v3.6.2

• Firmware update now only is a press of a button on the /update screen
• Several bugfixes
• Improved webserver stability
• Start charging slow in Solar mode to prevent high initial current draw of EV that is initially slow in drawing current…

Release v3.6.1

This release is an URGENT bug release for users of v3.6.0; the bug prevents you from doing OTA updates once you have entered the wifi configuration portal, so then you are condemned to updating through USB-C. So ALL v3.6.0 USERS please update immediately via the /update endpoint, and avoid changing your wifi credentials in v.3.6.0 .

• Fix mongoose web server interfering with captive portal

< li>Expanded RFIDlist so you can now store 100 NFC cards (was 20)

• We added an https server; NOTE THAT FIRMWARE UPDATE THROUGH HTTPS DOES NOT WORK YET!
• We now Enable C2 by default
• We now always unlock the actuator when the EV is disconnected, and always lock it when the EV is connected
• Fixed a bug where we were toggling between state B1 and A when waiting for power/sun in Smart/Solar and EV disconnected
