Hello everyone,

I would like to know if any of these two electric vehicle chargers can be managed from the red node... where can I look at it?

WallBox Pulsar Plus 7.4kW Single Phase (5m)

V2C Trydan TRY32-1-L5 7.4kW Single Phase

I successfully control my wall charger using the OCPP v1.6 JSON protocol using [node-red-contrib-ocpp](https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-ocpp)

If your device supports the newer OCPP v2, you might wish to use [node-red-contrib-ocpp2](https://flows.nodered.org/node/@anl-ioc/node-red-contrib-ocpp2)

I don't understand what you are telling me, I have these two inverters to buy and I don't know which one to buy, since I want to command them from node-network.

A quick internet search shows that this one at least does have ocpp. I didn't check the other (I don't have either of these).

So if "WallBox Pulsar Plus" OR "V2C Trydan TRY32-1-L5" supports OCCP v1.6, then [node-red-contrib-ocpp](https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-ocpp) _should_ work for you.

Additionally, If either of them support OCCP V2.x then [node-red-contrib-ocpp2](https://flows.nodered.org/node/@anl-ioc/node-red-contrib-ocpp2) _might_ work (I haven't tried it)

Not certain how much clearer I can be?
