How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Metering errors do not usually affect charging safety but can impact billing or statistics.

  • 1. Compare over multiple sessions:
    • Record energy reported by the charger and vehicle over several full charges to confirm consistent discrepancy.
  • 2. Firmware update:
    • Update to the latest firmware, which may include metering corrections.
  • 3. Factory reset (if acceptable):
    • Perform a factory reset to reload default calibration data, then reconfigure settings.
  • 4. If large errors persist:
    • The metering IC or sensors may be out of tolerance or damaged.
    • Contact NRGkick support for calibration or hardware replacement options.
