I observed some variation in the charging rate of my Wallbox Pulsar+ while using the app. It started at a steady 9.5 kW, but after about two hours, the rate fluctuated between 4.5-9.5 kW. Despite this, the car charged from 35% to 80% in about 4.5 hours. The 2023 GTL has the latest updates, and I was charging during off-peak hours with the garage temperature around 84°F. Any idea why the charging rate fluctuated like this? Appreciate your insights
 
My device's current readings jump around, even after the ICCU fix. I think the current is actually stable, though, because my Sense monitor shows it's consistent. The problem is, my device always reports a current that's much lower (70-80%) than what the Sense monitor measures. I've talked to support, but nothing has fixed it, even with the latest updates.

That's gotta be the ICCU's overheat protection.
 
I keep hearing about problems with Wallbox chargers. That's why I'm not a fan of all those "smart" features. Too much to break, you know? I just want a charger that works plug it in, and it charges, simple as that.
