it's generally a bad idea to have polls running just based on the client connection status. Clients may be connected all the time, e.g. if users attach some API pollers or set the App to persistent background operation (which is necessary for widgets or tasker
scripting for example).<br>
<br>
You should only enable polling when actually necessary to perform some user requested action, or to monitor a drive / charge session of course.<br>
<br>
We've got an explicit "wakeup" command users can call to tell the module to wake up the car. That needs to implement some timeout to put the car back to sleep if it doesn't do so by itself.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">I rang the Hyundai service centre, and apparently, my BMS should not need any updates (build date 2021 vs 2020 cars with the problem apparently), but I'm putting it in for a checkup of the battery. Apparently, the BMS update was the subject

<p class="MsoNormal">It seems, according to the OVMS, that the 12V is going from 13v down to 12v over about 3hours before (generally) being recharged. Looking at that link you shared with me (and related
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lr3Z_z1C0Uk&t=965s" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lr3Z_z1C0Uk&t=965s</a>), it should be more like 24 hours. It still should be triggering a charge cycle - and obviously in this case it seems to miss
one and then it just goes downhill from there - so maybe the BMS still has a bug; not helped by being forced to trigger about 4x more frequently than normal!<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Assuming nothing is wrong with the car (which unless I install some kind of external battery monitor like that youtube clip), I can only assume that the 3hr drain is because my Ioniq 5 module is polling too much (which, seeing I copied
the vehicle_kianiroev/src/ as my base, would mean THAT polls too much as well). I still have the PollSetPidList() called with the same data (albeit a copy) as the Kia. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">So in drafting this email I think I've hit on the problem, which is when the car is off, but a V2 or V3 client is connected (like the android app in 'background' mode), then it uses the 'Charging' pollstate element. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">It has {OFF, Charging, ON} at the moment, which means there's space for a 4th which I will assign to 'off, not-charging and clients connected'. I'll see what I can do to drop that right down in polling frequency and the number of modules

while the OVMS draws some power, unless you actually keep the car alive <br>
by polling, that's normally no issue. The 12V battery will be recharged <br>
automatically from the main battery by the car.<br>
<br>
The Ioniq 5 though has a history of issues with the 12V battery. <br>
According to Andrew Till, a BMS update has fixed his issues:<br>
