Choosing which 22kW EV Pro Car Charger

In a few years time, when all cars will be Electric Vehicles, (EV's),
27 million houses in the UK may think about an EV Car Charger at home. A lot of houses have 2 cars.

Life without a home charger could be difficult. With a lack of electric vehicle parking spaces at work, high offsite charging costs and travelling to and from and queuing at a remote charging site for hours is going to be highly likely soon. Would you abandon your new electric vehicle in a remote car park for hours now? and how will that effect your car insurance.

To get the full advantage,
you want your own secure EV Pro Car Charger at home,
where your car is on your drive and you are in your home.
Fitting a home EV Pro Car Charger now just makes sense.

Let me make it super easy for you,

95% of domestic supplies have 1 phase which means you are limited to 7.3kW

Even if your domestic supply one of the few that has 3 phases,
some adjustments are likely to install a 22kW EV Car Charger
but the benefit is 3x faster car charging,
4 hours overnight instead of 12 hours for example for a 90kWh battery.

Which 22kW EV Pro model should I have installed?

There are 2, a single and a duel gun.
The duel is only £400 more expensive, for 2 usable spaces.
It is bigger and heavier, which is no concern when it is safely on the wall.

Both have all of the best features as you can see from tegh table below.
If you have 2 cars, a duel system is much better and cheaper than 2 singles. You can fully recharge 2 90kWh cars in around 4 hours overnight.

Why do some installs take longer and cost more than others?

If the route from your consumer unit to your intended charging bay
is difficult or longer than 10M of cable,
or if the incoming power supply is looped with a neighbour,
or if your incoming power supply is too low for your needs,
there may be an additional cost or a time delay (a few months),
whilst we help you contact your distributor to make a change,
which we will tell you about on the survey.

Our installation includes;

An optional EICR, Electrical Installation Condition Report,
An EIC, Electrical Installation Certificate,
Part P planning application and certificate,
MCB or MCBO (fuse),
EV power line;
     from the fuse to the EV charger
     through 1 wall, clipped direct
     max 6mm for 10 meters allowed for
     conduit or trunking where required
wall mounted EV unit with Type 2 socket,
App installation and connection
instructions on how to best use of the EV charger and
an industry leading 5 year Warranty

*Whilst our simple pricing covers most households,
there would be minimal additional charges if
your install needed a second consumer unit for example,
or the distance was greater than 10 meters of cable,
or we had to drill through more than 1 wall,
all of which will be declared on the survey.

Charge your car at home and save 81%

A typical small EV car has a 60kWh battery that can last around 220 miles.
A 7.3kW charger takes 8.2 hours to charge 60kWh battery (60 / 7.3 = 8.2).

If you are paying 14.24p/kWh at home (August 22),
that will cost you £8.52 with a 7.3kW charger or £8.46 with a 22kW charger.
The 22kW charger would be much faster at 2.7 hours, (60 / 22 = 2.7).



My Kuga Diesel is getting 45.5 mpg and now that costs £43.88 for every 220 miles.

1.999 per litre x 4.54 litres, or £9.075 per gallon which gives me 45.5 miles,
so 220 miles / 45.5mpg x £9.075 per gallon = £43.88 per 220 miles.

In August 2022, that is an incredible saving of 81% using the 7.3kW or 22kW chargers.

I wish my fuel supply was in the garden and cost 81% less!
No more travelling to the petrol station, just charge up overnight, at home!

It makes even more sense when the EV is coupled with a modern solar generator.

Charge faster with a 22kW charger

A larger EV car may have a 90kWh battery that may last around 220 miles.
A 7.3kW charger would take 12.3 hours to charge 90kWh battery (90 / 7.3 = 12.3).
In this case you may need a 22kW charger

If you are paying 14.24p/kWh at home (August 22),
that will cost you £12.79 with a 7.3kW charger or £12.84 with a 22kW charger.
The 22kW charger would be much faster at 4.1 hours, (90 / 22 = 4.1).



Let us say a Range Rover sized diesel may get 30.0 mpg,
which now costs £66.55 for every 220 miles.

1.999 per litre x 4.54 litres, or £9.075 per gallon which gives me 30.0 miles,
so 220 miles / 30.0mpg x £9.075 per gallon = £66.55 per 220 miles.

In August 2022, that is an incredible saving of 81% using the 7.3kW or 22kW chargers.

It makes the most sense to have the 22kW charger for larger 90kWh batteries.

The 90kWh batteries takes 12.3 hours to charge on the smaller 7.3kW chargers.
You should aim to be fully charged in around 8 hours, usually overnight.

You may not always get a space at work and public chargers will charge
much more than the 14.24 pence per kWh that I pay at home, (August 2022).

These calculations are examples taken in August 2022 using my bills.
I can calculate your costs for you during your installation.
