Charger Poll

[stonecoldrmw]

I'd be interested to note which chargers people when with and why.

Personally, I went with the Tesla one as I just felt that you're spending a lot of money on the car so it made sense to me to have the OEM kit for the charger.

Pod Point (not on the voting list!)

Good reviews at the time I was looking and qualified for the grant.

Andersen (A2), also not on the list.

Wanted a tethered and discreet charger.

Hadn't actually heard of these chargers - probably because I just decided early on that I wanted the Tesla charger set up.

For some reason, I can't actually edit the poll to add them. I will add them below this as separate posts and then like the post for any further votes.

Pod Point (as mentioned not on your list). Primarily because they made the whole ordering, grant application process easier than the other suppliers.

Did have issue due to contractor damaging breaker on install, which resulted in failure after 6 month. Pod-Point rectified though and it's been fine since.

Same here, was looking for something discreet as it’s at the front of the house. It’s a bit more expensive than some but the looks, build quality and the features of the unit are well worth it.

I have Podpoint. Simple application process, easy to deal with (on a complex cable routing). Their contractor installed it on New Years Eve with zero issues. I would recommend them.

I wanted neat but did not have the space for an anderson so I went custom:

That’s a great idea - nicely done

Tesla. Considered Andersen at the time (last year) but there was some negative press. Like the look of the Tesla one.

I cant fault mine. 8 meter cable is a dream!

Easee charger for me (not on the poll) - free back office for life and futue smart grid functions. it is also trouble-free so far. It also provides 6A 'shore power' and ability to add a second charger to the 32A circuit and load share.
