WLED - How to show EV charging status/ampage

Configuration

I have just installed a PodPoint EV charger along with a 70-LED pixel light strip and WLED controller.

I have a power monitor CT clamp on the supply to the charging point so have data on either Watts or Amps being charged

How can I create an automation to light up the LED’s to show some charging status’s?

Have any of you done something similar?

Lights could be off for not charging, different colour or taller bar depending on how much charge is being added etc.

WLED have an effekt #98 called Percent that will fill the segment controlled by setting the intensity 0-100.

Here is one of several threads discussing this.
