    The board you fitted is called OSB, and is used in many construction works. It is normally designed for inside use. I think it needs painting or staining, and would look nice in the same green as the fence or front door. Great video.

    As a DIY homeowner in America, the one downside I've found of hiring proper tradespeople is that for some reason they tend to dislike reading the instructions first. I often read the instructions online before I even buy an item - and the quality of the instructions often reflects the quality of the product.

    The blanking plate is a great idea for new build houses - round here the planners are currently satisfied if they install an outdoor 3 pin socket “to enable easier future installation” of a charger which is farcical. This would be far better, pre-cabled with the appropriate size cable etc but without the cost of supplying the whole thing.

    Hi. I got one of the first batch of chargers and it has been mounted outside for a while. Never had any problem with water. Even when the cable was coming in from the top. Paid about 457£ for it in Norway. Now it’s mounted inside the garage.

    You forgot the most important feature for installing them in groups: Once you configure one, you can pop it out of the baseplate and pop the others in one after the other---they will read the stored configuration from the baseplate. Quite important if you have 101 of these and don't want to stand there for hours and hours with your phone...

      Even if these lose connection to the servier they have a fall-back system that allows the system to charge your car, if it's being used to forward charging info to a 3rd party supplier (for charging a work vehicle paid by company for example) that data is stored locally and uploaded back to the server once back online.

The whole point is that over the next 100 years there may be 10 different chargers of different sizes installed in the same spot. The backing should be reasonably sized to accommodate most charger form factors. Perhaps, just as electricians don't like carpenters doing electrical work, one should consult a carpenter to design a good backing using material that will hold up well in the weather and look nice. Then the carpenter could either make up a batch or advise on what materials to keep on hand to make as needed. One could even paint the backing for the next day's job the night before with an appropriate color.

    Had one for almost a year, not had a problem so far. Some of the smart features you don't mention is that with the use of RFID we can split costs. I have an RFID card for my work van (Work installed via local fuel supplier who also supply fuel cards for our non-electric fleet). So long as I start the charger with the RFID registered to that account, all charging for that is recorded, documented and ends up back with work, who then refund the electricity costs for charging their van. If we have guests who need a charge, I can start with the app, and that shows a personal use.
    We're looking at a 2nd car in a while, which will be electric, so as the cablings already there we can simply add a 2nd unit, and let them figure it out. Being 3-phase ready also means it's 22KW capable out the box, as long as you have a 3-phase supply. Ours is cabled as 1 phase, but just upgraded house feed to 3 phase (1x50A doesn't go far with elec heating, cooking, and a van to charge, domestic gas is not normal here in Norway, at least outside Oslo) , and we have that option later should we end up with a vehicle supporting 3-phase charge (not many do yet).

    This charger is perfect for domestic use as well, but it's not really designed for the UK market, and your regulations( Hence the lacking PEN fault detection). To get the most out of this charger you need to link it aginst the Tibber smart app( Tibber is a electricity provider on the Norwegian market) and install the Tibber Pulse( monitoring device for domestic installations). That way you charge during the periods of the day when electricity is cheap, and the pulse and Easee charger communicates and makes sure that your main fuse is not overloaded :)

    Very useful information here. I'm looking at the lower-spec 'home' model as part of my checks before taking the EV plunge.
    Have you ever done an install where the unit itself is in the garage and the Type 2 port is actually split/spurred into 2 wires ... where one wire goes to one side of the garage (and is then fed through the wall to an external-wall-mounted Type 2 'dock/port') and the other wire goes to the opposite side of the garage (and is then fed through the wall to another external-wall-mounted Type 2 'dock/port')?
    I can't garage a car (garage is way too small) but I'd like the wall unit inside - and have the ability to plug in a Type 2 cable from the outside - from either side of the garage using one or the other wall mounted ports - without needing to go into the garage. I'd just enable the charge via an app (or the car planner/some other way).

    I'm an IT guy but certainly not an electrician this would be a fairly easy install for me. I think the average customer would have problems installing this one vs the other ones you've installed. I dow however like the RFID feature. I wear a RDID ring and this would be great and would prevent a neighbor from trying to use this when I'm not home.
    Here's a suggestion for the wood you installed. To me this looks like interior wood so consider replacing it with pressure treated lumber later. If you're going to use it then buy a really good exterior sealant and/or paint. Wood like that will breakdown over time and with the type of environment you have over there it will deteriorate fast.

    Even being generous and say you charging at 8 amps for you to charge from 20% to 80% would take over 17 hours. I don’t think your tenants would be very happy to share charging at currents that low. However 21 amps is a respectable charge rate giving you recharge times around 6 hours per vehicle you might get both your vehicles charged overnight. Sounds perfect for your situation. I think this product in a tenant share situation, is only good enough to get your vehicle across town to the nearest Supercharger. Did you know that the regenerative braking can actually recharge your Tesla. If you can convince someone to tow your Tesla for about 25 miles at 70 m/hr. Of course the vehicle doing the towing will only be getting about 5 miles to the gallon. Great presentation, you made feel right at home. Happy charging!

      probs nothing stopping anyone takining it just like nest doorbells. the main deterrent is the fact they become paperweights if stolen due to serial numbers and account pairing. its like stealing an iphone

      As Alitrix says, without your login info, or RFID chip, you can't start the charger. Also ours came with a small padlock to lock the front facia to the baseplate. Not high-security, but stops someone just popping it off and walking off on way home from pub. (Reminds me, must make sure I know where that key is) If someone tries to simply unplug from your car to charge theirs, as soo as the cable disconnects, it turns off, so needs re-started via app or RFID.

    Just wondering. It's easy to mount. But also "easy to dismount"? It seems so. Just put screwdriver underneath.. and click.. so when it's mounted on place more or less open... No risk it will be gone when you wake up in the morning?

      You can lock the chargeberry to the backplate with a pad lock, and even if a thief would get their hands on one, it won't work without a pin code :)

      no its not certified. they picked some test out of the standard. but they will never pass the whole product certification. e.g. there is no manual button for "Tests"

    What's your recommendation now? Hypervolt or Easee?
    I think the hardware of the Easee looks better as does features like load balancing between devices....but their customer support is almost non existent - particularly stark when compared to Hypervolt.

    Standing off the OSB board would make it so that it could be rear entry and then not worry about screws / lags getting into the brick. Easy stand offs are small 1" PVC pipe cuts run screw thru them. Some nice epoxy paint would make the OSB last a lot longer! OSB doesn't do good with water. I am assuming the Mrs of the house won't like the big chunk of wood on the side of 'her' house! 😁😁👍

    I have a series 1 Leaf with the smaller battery but with the optional 6Kw charger. Since I bought it I have used the 13 a/h socket in the garage. It roughly charges about 10% capacity per hour. I have thought about having a 7Kw wall charger fitted to my house but all the ones I see reviewed seem so complicated. I am of the older generation, I don't have a smart phone even. Why can't I buy a simple to use wall charger with no app needed which I can just plug into without a wi-fi cloud set up. Is there such model out there for us "ludites"?

      So I think the reason is that if you want a discount front the government, the device has to be passed as a smart device, as in internet connected. So I'd suggest most companies go this way when designing it.
