⚠️ Important Safety Information
To ensure safe and reliable charging, please follow these guidelines:
🔌 Use a direct 3‑pin socket Always plug your charger directly into a properly earthed 3‑pin mains socket. Do not use extension cables, as they can cause dangerous overheating and will void your warranty.
💧 Keep plugs dry Ensure the 3‑pin plug remains dry at all times. If charging outdoors, only use a waterproof‑rated socket.
🏠 Check your property wiring If charging from a 13A mains socket, have your wiring inspected. Older wiring may not safely handle the demand. An NICEIC‑registered contractor can carry out this check for you.
⚡ Install a dedicated EV socket For best results, consider installing a new 3‑pin socket designed specifically for EVs. These sockets are BS 1363‑2 compliant and marked “EV.”
🔍 Inspect your charging cable Regularly check your cable for signs of wear or damage. Replace it immediately if any issues are found.

A simple example is that one of our 3 Pin portable chargers which can delivery 3kW per hour will take 10hrs to fully charge a car with a 30kW battery (30/3). As always, if in doubt please feel free to contact us anytime and we will be happy to help

What cable length should I go for?
What cable length should I go for?
There are two main considerations when choosing the best cable length.
1. The cable should run loosely along the ground to reduce the risk if tripping. If the distance between your power source and your car is 7-8 metres, go for a 10 metre cable.
2. Think about where you are likely to charge your car the second most often and make sure you allow enough cable to reach your power source at both locations comfortably.
