ChargeAmps
Master your car charging with ease.
Take control of your ChargeAmps charger with this Homey app.
Supports AURA, DAWN, HALO and LUNA. Monitor charging and control your charger from the device panel, Homey Energy, the dashboard widget and Flow automations.
API key required
Contact ChargeAmps support to request an API key before you add a charger.
OCPP chargers — RFID strongly recommended
If your charger uses OCPP (a version such as 1.6 under Diagnostics, not CAPI), add an RFID tag in the ChargeAmps User Portal and enter the same tag in device settings. Strongly recommended for reliable start/stop from Homey. Without your own tag the app uses a built-in virtual tag for session start; this may work but is not guaranteed in all environments.
Key features
- Turn the port on/off; start and stop charging from Energy, the widget and Flow.
- Set charging current; RFID lock; cable lock (AURA, DAWN, LUNA).
- HALO: 220 V outlet and ground light.
- Homey Energy: smart charging, target power and charge targets (kWh, time or cost).
- Dashboard widget: overview, start/stop, current limit and optional live session cost.
- Many Flow cards for automations — react to connection, charging, energy and charge targets.
- Optional notification when charging completes; weekly energy summary; diagnostics and Identify (LED flash).
Information displayed
- Real-time power and energy; totals for today, week, month and year.
- Current and last charging session; car and charger status.
- Per-phase current and voltage while charging; firmware and protocol (CAPI/OCPP) in Diagnostics.

What’s new
Version 5.4.8 — Power control now shows "Homey" and "ChargeAmps app" instead of the generic "Automatic" label. Clearer localized message when target power cannot be changed in ChargeAmps app mode. OCPP (experimental): optional setting to leave RFID lock unchanged during session start/stop — only remote start/stop is sent; your configured remote-start RFID tag is still used in the request. Not yet verified on all chargers.
ChargeAmps
ChargeAmps is not compatible with the selected Homey.
ChargeAmps will install on Homey shortly.
