Description
Since the deprecation of the Owners API, we have to go through many hoops and loops to use the Fleet API, and who know what changes are going to make in the future to it.
The most prominent feature lost is the possibility to send active commands to the car, especially initiating the charge or setting the amperes for all the owners of "dumb" wallboxes like the Tesla Wall Connector.
There is a neat project, called [Tesla BLE HTTP Proxy](https://github.com/wimaha/TeslaBleHttpProxy) that [implements the commands API](https://github.com/wimaha/TeslaBleHttpProxy?tab=readme-ov-file#api) that could be used to bring back those features without having to touch the Fleet API. The program acts as a BLE key for the car (i.e. like the official Tesla app) and can send authenticated commands. The drawback is that it has to be physically near the car, so it's mainly suited to control the car's charging process.
It would be great if this could be used instead of the Tesla HTTP Proxy for the users that choose so. (btw looks like the Tesla HTTP Proxy addon is being orphaned since creator sold their Tesla)
