Now available via app j+ pilot: New unlocking and receipt function
Juice Technology AG, manufacturer of charging stations and software, and leader in mobile charging stations for electric vehicles, is giving the JUICE BOOSTER 3 air a further boost with the latest release of the j+ pilot app. The new features - sharing the charging connector via the JUICE BOOSTER 3 air, precise billing of charging processes and the receipt function - offer unparalleled convenience for e-mobility users.
Thanks to the JUICE BOOSTER 3 air, cumbersome manual operations on the vehicle cockpit are now a thing of the past: To release the charging coupling from the charging socket after charging is complete, all you need to do is press a button on the plug of the JUICE BOOSTER 3 air.
Unlock the charging coupling at the push of a button
The "unlock charging coupling" function can be activated via the corresponding menu item in the j+ pilot app. This brand new function joins the already known options for using the multifunction button on the JUICE CONTROLLER, the convenient control unit in the vehicle's Type 2 plug, and can be individually configured just as easily. Overall, the following options are possible: changing the charging power, activation via RFID or charging without an activation function, unlocking the charging coupling to end the charging process at the push of a button or alternatively via RFID.
The unlocking function at the push of a button is protected against unauthorized unplugging by two-factor authentication. The prerequisite for using this function is that the vehicle is unlocked. This function has already been tested with models from various vehicle manufacturers. However, a few vehicles that do not meet the current standards also allow the charging coupling to be unlocked without first unlocking the vehicle. The "Unlock charging coupling via RFID" option is provided for this case. The app advises users to carry out a test after switching on the "Unlock charging coupling" function.
load management and charging prioritization
The app also enables easy pooling of several boosters into a load management group, in which the available power is distributed evenly or prioritized to all charging vehicles. This is also possible directly via the j+ pilot. Management of multi-family houses that are reluctant to make a major investment in a fixed installation can quickly implement a smart, future-proof solution for residents.
Commercial vehicle fleets can also be equipped quickly and easily with a demand-oriented charging park including fleet management (via the j+ pilot app) using the JUICE BOOSTER 3 air. All charging stations in the network can be controlled centrally via the app.
Business solution: Accurate billing and logbook
The flexible solution is an equal alternative to fixed wall charging stations. If the JUICE BOOSTER 3 air is made available in combination with j+ pilot to field staff who travel both for business and private reasons, they can save a lot of time thanks to the integrated logbook.
With the receipt function, the charging history can be exported as a CSV file and given to the employer for expense reporting or attached to the tax return. In addition to German and English, the app is now also available in French, Italian and Spanish.
