Not sure if anyone read this story (ST Mag 29/08/2021 p 50)? It seems to sum up what many have already experienced. Personally, I rarely do trips outside my home charger range, but when I do, I make sure I have not only a plan B, but a plan C, D, E and F. And in one case, I did get to plan C...

Hi there, I am considering getting a home charge point and it looks like Chargemaster and ChargedEV are around the premium end, with the latter quoting me £674 for an EO (tethered unit) with installation and after the £350 grant is applied. Does that sound about right? I know install can depend...

Hi Leafers! I live in Newport Pagnell, Buckinghamshire close to M1 and Welcome Break services are located literally under my nose. However I can't get to their Ecotricity points without getting on M1. This would add about 30 miles to the trip and is simply illogical already having a side road...

I work at Spelthorne Borough Council and have been asked to write a business case for installing EV charging points in Staines-upon-Thames. What kind of charger would you like (fast/rapid)? What charging model would you prefer (PAYG, or just paying for parking)? And would you use it if it was...
