Smart Boost Function
It’s useful to guarantees EV’s battery capacity before a set time when the solar energy is
insufficient.
While users enable the smart boost function and set “Pick-up time” and “Preset electricity”,
the EV charger will charge the EV with a target kWh figured by a set time, it may draw the
power from the grid to guarantee the EV’s battery capacity when the solar energy is
insufficient.
Example: if the users enable smart boost and set the “pick-up time” is 22:00, and “preset
electricity” is 20kWh. In sunlight hours, the EV has been charged by surplus solar energy with
the only 10kWh of charge accumulated, because users activated the smart boost, then the
THOR EV Charger will automatically boost the charge to the required 20kWh by 22:00 even
taking power from the grid.
7.3 Off-peak modes
Introduction
Once enable the Off-Peak mode, the EV charger will automatically charge the EV when it’s at
off-peak time to reduce the electricity bill. Users also can customize their low-rate charging
time in the off-peak mode page.
Note:
1. Users need to input the charging rates in the setting page manually before enabling off-
peak modes.
2. The EV should connect with the EV charger, and the off-peak mode will be automatically
activated at the low-rate charging time.
