I've got a Project EV model EVA-07S-SE with an odd problem.

It won't charge the car when I preset the start time to 00:30, which is when Octopus Energy start their off-peak tariff.
01:00 works fine.
The issue is puzzling support at Project EV who haven't come up with a solution yet.

Anybody else having a similar problem ?

Edited to add :-
I schedule the charge via the Project EV app.
Scheduling a charge to run from 01:00 for 5 hours works fine.
There are no charging restrictions set in the car.

Where or what are you using to manage the scheduling?

Is this via the ProjectEV app, or the car. If it's the latter, then that's more likely to be to blame. Saying that, I've got a ProjectEV charger and I've never even downloaded the app so I've no idea if it's any good.
