Emergency Charging

This is using the portable charger that comes with your EV.  These chargers are fine for people that have an EV with a small battery like a PHEV or people who have an extended amount of time to charge.  It plugs into your wall socket and offers slow AC charging to your EV at around 10-12km of range to your EV for every hour it's charging.  We don't recommend using this charger for everyday use, instead we advise all EV owners to have a wall mounted charge station installed in their home.

Plug 'n' Play Charging

A wall mounted solution for any home, this charge station offers the ease of simply plugging it in and walking away.  There is nothing to set, no app to unlock and no buttons to press.  This type of charging is much faster than the portable charger (adding around 50km per hour of charge) because it's done with a higher energy rate.  You must have these units installed by a qualified electrician to ensure the installation is safe.  We recommend all EV owners have a wall mounted unit installed in their homes.

Smart Charging for Home & Fleets

Simply the smallest and smartest EV charger on the market.  Wallbox charge stations offer a comprehensive software package with app access, control and reporting.  Perfect or fleet charging, apartment blocks or unsecured charger locations.  With the ability to charge at specific times, these chargers can lower the load on your home at peak times and if applicable, allow you to charge with off peak power rates.  Typically adding around  50km per hour of charge it makes charging simple.  You must have these units installed by a qualified electrician to ensure the installation is safe.  This type of charging would suit the majority of users.

DC Fast Charging

This is an essential but rarely required (if you've got your charging infrastructure sorted to suit your needs) method.  DC fast charging can fill your EV battery to 80% (max capacity on a DC charge) in next to no time (around 100km in 15-20mins), you'd use this method of charge if you found yourself doing more km's than you normally would and might run out before you make it home.  There are a number of free DC fast chargers around the country, there are also a number you must sign up to and pay for.  Typically DC charging is at least twice as costly as AC charging at home is.
