Currently in the market for an at home EV charger, I've seen this ev-extras.com/pro…ted which seems to tick the boxes but i cant find many reviews, does anyone have one ? Or can you recommend an alternative

sorted byAs my friend has found when trying to charge at say Tesco, Sainsburys etc, ice cars park in EV bays.
So a cable that reaches to a bay or two over is a good idea.
Highest standards and lowest price.
Have used these guys at two different work locations and am very happy.
They link very easily with time of use tariffs from companies like Octopus Energy, I am currently getting 6 hours of electric @ 7.5p kWh (and sometimes more as I am on their Intelligent Octopus tariff) so am currently paying less than 2p per mile.
Get one with a tethered cable as you don't want to be sorting cables out in the wet or putting a wet cable in the boot after it rains.
They will point you to an installer although a lot of qualified electricians install them now as well which might work out cheaper.
