Tessie

← Vehicles

Connect your Tesla using the Tessie API. This will never wake up the car, polling can be set to "always" and interval "1M". If the vehicle is awake, the data is usually less than 15 seconds old. If the vehicle is asleep, the data is from the time the vehicle went to sleep. Get your token at dash.tessie.com

Parameters

Name	Description	Level
`vin`	Vehicle VIN If you own multiple vehicles from the same manufacturer Example: `W...`	optional
`token`	Tessie API Token	optional
`title`	Title Will be displayed in the user interface	optional
`capacity` [kWh]	Battery capacity Example: `50`	optional
`icon`	Icon Will be displayed in the user interface Default: `car`	advanced
`phases`	Maximum number of phases The maximum number of phases which can be used Example: `3`	advanced
`mode`	Default charging mode Used when a vehicle is connected. Possible values are Off, Now, MinPV and PV, or empty if none should be set	advanced
`minCurrent` [A]	Minimum amperage The minimum amperage per connected phase that can be used Example: `6`	advanced
`maxCurrent` [A]	Maximum amperage The maximum amperage per connected phase that can be used Example: `16`	advanced
`maxPower` [W]	Maximum charging power hint Defines the maximum charging power of the vehicle. Helps improve charge plan accuracy when the vehicle typically uses less than the offered current or supports higher single-phase current compared to three-phase. The offered current of the loadpoint is not affected. Example: `10000`	advanced
`identifiers`	Identification Mostly this can be added later, see: https://docs.evcc.io/en/docs/features/vehicle	advanced
`priority`	Priority Priority of the loadpoint or vehicle in relation to other loadpoints or vehicles for allocating pv energy	advanced

Configuration example for evcc.yaml

If you don't want to configure via the UI, you can alternatively use this YAML block.
