FAQs
Can this charger be left outside in the rain?
Yes, the unit is IP65 rated when connected, meaning it is protected against low-pressure water jets and dust. However, for longevity, avoiding prolonged submersion or heavy pooling water is advised.
Is this charger compatible with all electric cars?
It is compatible with any electric vehicle that uses a Type 2 (IEC 62196-2) charging port, which covers almost all electric cars and plug-in hybrids in the UK.
How long will it take to charge my car?
The charge time depends on your vehicle's battery capacity. At 2.3KW, it will typically add about 6-8 miles of range per hour of charging.
Does it require a professional installation?
No, it is a portable device that plugs into a standard UK socket. However, ensure your home wiring is inspected by a qualified electrician to ensure it can handle constant 10A loads.
Can I use an extension cord with this charger?
Using extension cords is generally discouraged as they can introduce resistance, heat, and potential fire hazards. Always plug the unit directly into a dedicated wall outlet.
What does the LED light signify?
The LED light provides a visual status of the unit's connection and charging state. Refer to the specific color codes in your user manual to determine if it is in standby, charging, or error mode.
Troubleshooting
LED indicator fails to illuminate
Check that the UK power plug is firmly seated in the wall socket and verify that the socket has power by testing it with another appliance.
Charging does not start after connection
Ensure the Type 2 connector is fully inserted into the vehicle port until it clicks. Check the vehicle's internal display for any scheduled charging settings that may be delaying the process.
Unit feels hot during operation
Verify the wall socket is not overloaded. If the socket or plug feels excessively hot, stop charging immediately and inspect the electrical installation for loose wiring.
