Dear <strong>Jan Robin Aaland</strong>,

SXXXXXXXXXXXX7

Your Nissan’s battery is 8% charged and has an estimated driving range of 17,0 km with climate control on, or 19,0 km with climate control off.

A 3kw charger will fully charge your Nissan’s battery in 16 h 0 min.

A 6kw charger will fully charge your Nissan’s battery in 7 h 30 min.
.

Hi Jan Robin,

Quick, dirty and not 100% tested.

$mail = IMAP_GetMailEx ( 50675 , ‚42602‘ )
$percent = get_string_between($mail['Text'] , "battery is ", "% charged and");
SetValue(12345,$percent); // write the value into an integer variable

//http://www.justin-cook.com/2006/03/31/php-parse-a-string-between-two-strings/
function get_string_between($string, $start, $end){
    $string = ' ' . $string;
    $ini = strpos($string, $start);
    if ($ini == 0) return '';
    $ini += strlen($start);
    $len = strpos($string, $end, $ini) - $ini;
    return substr($string, $ini, $len);
}

I’ll be damned :slight_smile:

Worked like a champ
an ekstra semicolon and a apostrophe gone wrong from copy/paste… but this function was exxcellent :+1:

Thanks a lot
