I am now using the Tesla API to match charging to solar production.

Looks pretty good.

I have the following script setup to run every minute when the car is charging.

service: tesla_custom.api
data:
  command: CHARGING_AMPS
  parameters:
    path_vars:
      vehicle_id: '{{ state_attr(''binary_sensor.<car_name>_online_sensor'', ''id'') }}'
    charging_amps: '{{ ((states(''sensor.solaredge_solar_power''))| float *1.4 )| int }}'
