Since 15 July 2025, Ohme chargers have no longer been compatible with Charge Anytime. We recently updated the technology behind Charge Anytime. This is so we can keep making improvements and create new products that reward customers for driving EVs.

 

It's not been possible to integrate Ohme with this new technology. If you have an Ohme charger you’ll still be able to sign up to Charge Anytime by connecting with an eligible vehicle. We’re constantly looking to open up the eligibility to more EV models so if you don’t see your EV here, keep an eye on our page.

 

To charge both EVs in this case, both will need to be compatible with Charge Anytime, so the below advice is no longer accurate.

 

You can see all eligibility details in our Charge Anytime page here.

 

 

Howdy ​@Phil Smith ,

 

In this setup, you can just Plug-In And Go. No need to mess around as ANY EV you hook up to that Charger will get the Charge Anytime rate automatically.

    Thanks for the quick reply. That's good news but will the charger know the charge state of the second car that gets plugged in, or will it default back to the Audi and confuse the charging routine?

    It won’t know that it’s another EV, but that will not affect Charging which will function normally anyway.

    Hi ​@Blastoise186 ,

    I use an Indra rather than an Ohme, so this might not be relevant, but I’ve always assumed I should change the vehicle details in the charger’s app if the 2 cars have significantly different capacity batteries.

    My logic is that, as it only allows me to set a ‘ready by’ time, it must need to know how many kWh it’s likely to need to deliver?

    You can do that if you want, or you can just leave it be. Personally, I’d say leave it be unless the capacities are massively different TBH because the EV will stop taking charge when it’s done anyway.

      Is there any update on the prospect if adding two chargers to the same charge anytime account?

      Hi ​@BlueGoat ,

      AFAIK you can only use ONE Charger at a time. It’s unlikely to change anytime soon. But you can charge ANY EV you want with that Charger and still get the Charge Anytime rates.
