What are the different EV charger features?
Tethered EV chargers
This is one of the first features to look at. A tethered charger comes with the cabling permanently attached. When not in use, you simply coil the cable and store it within the charger. Everything is neatly in one place, ready to use. With a tethered charger, there is only one type of plug so if you have multiple electric cars, they must require the same fitting. If you change your vehicle regularly, they must also use the same fitting to avoid replacing the charger.
Untethered EV chargers
An untethered charger does not have a cable attached. It is simply an outlet and a separate cable and plug must be supplied. This offers more flexibility because multiple cars with different plugs can use it. If you change your car, you don’t have to replace the charger. One drawback is that the cable needs to be stored elsewhere and unpacked for use.
Remote management feature
The remote management feature is a useful addition to look out for. This feature allows you to monitor and control the charging process from an app. You can see how long is left until full charge is achieved, how your car is performing and the condition of your battery on the app.
Load balancing feature
You might need this feature if you have more than one vehicle charging at the same time. It manages the distribution of power so that your electrical system doesn’t become unbalanced or overpowered.
Enabled for solar
If you have solar panels or are thinking about installing solar soon, this is an important feature to have.
