Portable plug-in chargers are designed for your convenience allowing you to charge your vehicle just about anywhere using any UK 3 pin domestic plug socket. They operate as a simple plug and play. This portable charger has variable settings meaning you can select any speed you want between 6A and 13A at the click of a button.

Why do I need to charge at different speeds?

We all pay peak and off-peak rates for our electricity; if you charge at a slower pace during peak times such as 6 Amps, you will pay less for your electricity. Variable chargers are also useful when charging at a caravan park or when using solar power as they allow you to drop the charge to a low setting.

* We are continually reviewing and evolving our EV charging solutions.  We are therefore pleased to confirm that this product was upgraded in September 2023, and as a result, the warranty has increased from 1 year to 2 years. This new product looks very different to the previous version. The images above showcase this new upgraded charger which now boasts an LCD screen, time-delay function, and a 2 year warranty for even greater peace of mind.

Before purchasing... which connection Type does your car need?

In Europe, Type 2 is the standard so most European cars will use Type 2 although watch out for older EU models that might be Type 1. Tesla also use Type 2. Japanese car brands were originally Type 1 but some of the newer models are now adopting Type 2.

Please check which kind of connection your vehicle requires from the below options…

Type 1 Vehicles – These vehicles will have 5 connection points plus a clip-in connection above.

Type 2 Vehicles – These vehicles will have 7 connection points.

As a final check, please see the close-up images of the connection on this listing which you can compare to your vehicle's charging socket.

SAFETY INFORMATION

Seems to cleverly move the electricity from the house into the car. I think the cable has something to do with it.
