Charging Speed: Chargers are available with different power outputs, typically measured in kilowatts (kW). The higher the kW, the quicker your vehicle will charge.
Features: Premium models often come equipped with advanced capabilities such as smart charging, Wi-Fi connectivity, load management, and solar integration. It is worth thinking about whether these extras are worth the extra investment to you. .
Compatibility and Safety: It is important that the charger is suitable for your EV by checking connector types and charging capacity. EV chargers must always be installed by a qualified professional and carry safety certifications such as CE.
Cable Length: Check the distance from your charging point to your vehicle and choose a charger with a cable that can comfortably reach.
Tethered vs. Untethered: A tethered charger includes a permanently attached cable, while an untethered one requires you to use your own charging cable.
