Tesla Wall Connector
One of the best EV chargers today is the Tesla Wall Connector. It can add up to 71km of range per hour of charging and has a 7.3m cable. The Tesla Wall Connector is highly compatible, as it can be installed in homes, apartments, hospitality buildings, and workplaces.
It is designed to charge EVs with up to 22 kW of power, whether you live in a single-phase or three-phase home. You can choose from two charging modes: fast or scheduled. However, it doesn’t come with a display. The warranty for the Tesla Wall Connector is four years.
MyEnergi Zappi
Made in the UK, MyEnergi Zappi is a simple-to-use EV charging unit available in a 7kW single-phase or 22 kW three-phase with three modes of home charging: Eco, Eco+, and fast. It provides between 40 to 100 kilometres of range per hour of charge. Its modular construction gives users plenty of large flat areas to use. It is also compatible with every EV, PHEV and e-Bike currently available on the Australian and New Zealand market.
Zappi can still operate like an ordinary EV charging point for those with no solar system, which it will import from the grid. Its standard support is OCCP, which means users can connect to an OCPP-compatible platform to control and manage the charging experience.
FIMER Flexa AC Wallbox
The FIMER Flexa AC Wallbox is available in a 7.4kW single-phase and 22 kW three-phase model. Users can choose from stand-alone, future net, or inverter net models. Designed and manufactured in Italy, it is built strong with IP54 and IK08 protection. It’s backed by SuperCap, which ensures a reliable and competitive solution to end the transaction and release the cable in case of a blackout.
Users can monitor it via Bluetooth using the dedicated myFIMERCharger app, which offers different levels of personalisation to meet customer needs.
Fronius Wattpilot
The Fronius Wattpilot is a transportable solution for maximum flexibility and is designed for convenience and portability. It comes in two versions and power categories: Home with fitted chargers 11 kW and 22 kW and Go with 22 kW power output. Whichever, users can charge their EVs via Eco mode or Next trip mode, which can be selected on the EV charger or through the Fronius solar. Watt pilot app.
It also has dynamic load balancing in which the amount of self-generated solar power available from the PV system and the maximum household load connected to the grid is used optimally. Users can charge up to three EVs at the same time.
GoodWe HCA Series
The GoodWe HCA Series is available in 7 kW single-phase and 11/22 kW three-phase models. Designed with user-friendliness in mind, the HCA series can be wall—or pole-mounted and is IP66 protected against all weather conditions. Its SEMS monitoring platform integrates with the HCA charger, providing remote control and real-time data on charging sessions, energy consumption, and solar power generation.
Users don’t have to worry about space constraints as it can adapt to installation options. Plus, its compact and lightweight design makes installation and maintenance hassle-free.
