Ok more reading, and I found your post on theMCU fuse theory.My mind is blown - the fuse should protect a circuit yet here we have one, supposedly, that nukes the OBC when it blows! That's nuts.Has this been confirmed? If you were to cut the MCU fuse whilst the vehicle is charging , the blue caps would be vaporised?Kiev, have you replaced your fuse as precaution and if so , which fuse are you using?As for charge automation I will command a smart switch to start charging X minutes before I am due to drive. And stop charging using the pilot switch when I set off. Not the most flexible solution but better to be safe whilst these investigations are still inconclusive. Perhaps on from that I will look at tapping into the pilot signal for remote disconnect.
