Default DIY domestic electric vehicle charging point?

A fancier charging box can be programmed to say 'you can take XX amps' at
a particular time, or when your solar panels are generating, or whatever


Even fancier ones can measure how much is being used for other things,
subtract that from the mains capacity and add on what the solar is
generating, and dynamically tell the car how much it can take.
