Aoife F. –
I purchased one of these to replace a My Energie Zappi unit which became unreliable after the 3 year warranty expired. They sent two electricians, they installed all in 4 hours, they were professional, kind and they clean up after themselves.
However there are pros and cons to these chargers:
Pro’s
– 4 year warranty (domestic use only)
– Nice looking unit
– Works well with Tesla vehicles as it has the ability to be locked to only charge your car – handy feature if you think others might use the charger without your knowledge.
– If you have a 3 phase supply this can charge at 22kw
– Long 7.2m cable with handy button that opens the charge flap (Tesla only)
Con’s
– For most UK installations you will need to install and additional PEN fault detection (disconnects the supply in the event of PEN/Earthing loss) in order to meet current regs – most others have this facility built in so there is additional cost
– There are better options if you want to charge from solar
– Others have built in load monitoring – if you have high load appliances in your house (electric shower, hob etc) other chargers will ramp down the charging current to avoid overloading your main fuse.
So to summarise, at under this price with installation the unit appears good value and if your distribution board (fuse box) was not installed recently (last 2 years) it is most likely that your electrician will be installing a separate distribution board to run your charger anyway. Therefore the additional cost of buying one with the PEN fault detection built in is not that much more depending upon which board you buy and where you buy it from!
Hope this helps and I will provide an update on reliability further down the line.
