Coolblue BlueBuilt Peblar (WLAC1-F22RPWELMCR00)Works LocalFailed on 2026.10.0 with old firmware; fixed in 2026.10.1

The problem Since 2026.10.0 the Peblar config entry never loads. It stays in `setup_retry` with: > An unknown error occurred while communicating with the Peblar EV charger: Error occurred while communicating to the Peblar charger The authorization coordinator added in #183364 calls `meter_history()`. On my charger firmware, `GET /api/v1/statistics/meterhistory` returns 404. `async_setup_entry` awaits the first refresh of all coordinators in one `asyncio.gather`, so this one failure raises `ConfigEntryNotReady` and blocks the whole integration. The meter, user configuration and version …

Supported devices: Peblar Home; Peblar Home Plus; Peblar Business. Limitations: The Peblar APIs currently don't communicate when the charger is awaiting authentication (for example, using an RFID card) before it can start charging. As a result, you will see a suspended charging status in Home Assistant when the charger is actually awaiting authentication. Home Assistant manages the charger's local REST API for you. If it is switched off, setting up this integration switches it on, and it stays on afterwards. You can keep using that API yourself alongside the integration. Peblar is also sold …

Peblar without meter history endpointPartly works LocalSession authorization event entity stays unavailable on older firmware
Saved copy
The problem On a charger whose firmware does not have the meter history endpoint, the Session authorization event entity is still created and stays `unavailable` permanently. The description of #184824 says the event entity is skipped when the authorization coordinator's first refresh fails. The merged code does not do that: `event.py` only skips the entity when the charger has no RFID reader, and `test_a_charger_without_meter_history` asserts the entity exists with state `unavailable`. On this firmware `GET /api/v1/statistics/meterhistory` always returns `404`, so the entity can never become …

Limitations from the docs

  • The Peblar APIs currently don't communicate when the charger is awaiting authentication (for example, using an RFID card) before it can start charging. As a result, you will see a suspended charging status in Home Assistant when the charger is actually awaiting authentication.
  • Home Assistant manages the charger's local REST API for you. If it is switched off, setting up this integration switches it on, and it stays on afterwards. You can keep using that API yourself alongside the integration.
  • Peblar is also sold as white-label products, such as CoolBlue BlueBuilt, Eneco Connectric® and Shell Recharge. Some of these run firmware that is locked by the reseller: they reject generic Peblar firmware and may stay on an older version. On a CoolBlue BlueBuilt charger with firmware 1.6.1+1+COOLBLUE-1, the …
  • The Firmware and Customization update entities are not created, because the charger does not report any available update.
  • The Socket lock binary sensor always shows the socket as unlocked, because this firmware reports the socket as unlocked even while the cable is locked in. The Keep socket locked switch does lock the cable.
  • The List autocharge vehicles, Add autocharge vehicle and Delete autocharge vehicle actions do not work, because this firmware does not provide the autocharge vehicle list.
  • The Custom solar smart charging mode is not offered, as it needs firmware 1.10 or later.
