We have installed 2 customers houses with double Easee chargers this week.

The perfect solution for sharing 1 x 32A supply and charging 2 cars simultaneously

Smart features and built in 4g sim so no need for data cables

This looks suspiciously like a bit of an advert to me, yet it seems that you're not a registered vendor here, is that right? If you are a vendor, shouldn't ads like this be down in the vendor section?

Perhaps worth noting that other charge points also allow load management, even the basic Tesla 2nd Generation charge point has this function, as does the very flexible Zappi charge point (the latter is probably one of the most versatile around IMHO).

I know nothing about these units, but presumably they have typical load share capability. One question. In the first pics why didn't you install the wall units between the two-car parking spaces rather than well over to the nearside of just one car? Obviously, the intention is to be able to charge two cars at the same time so the two units fixed at the extreme left of one space makes no sense. Especially when the line feed comes from the right anyway as it would have then needed four metres less cable.

Just found the price of these, they are an eye-watering ÂŁ1,199 each, plus installation costs, less the OLEV grant if applicable. For a non-tethered charge point that seems to be a pretty massive amount of money, even the fairly expensive untethered equivalent version of the Zappi is "only" ÂŁ695, and that's still pretty expensive for what it is, when a basic untethered charge point can be purchased for under ÂŁ400. The Tesla wall connector, that also has load sharing, is ÂŁ460, so you could buy 5 Tesla wall connectors, and have some change left over, for the price of two of these units, which seems crazy. The Tesla units are also tethered, and generally tethered units are around ÂŁ50 to ÂŁ100 more expensive than untethered units.

They actually make the Anderson look cheap!

Hi Jeremy it is not an advert it is just to show people a different model of charger that I haven't seen on the forum. The price you have quoted is for the Commercial charger which gives the option of linking 101 chargers on one supply and having a full back office system included. The models we installed were for a domestic property and much cheaper than the commercial and you can install 3 domestic chargers on 1 x 32A supply.

Not an advert? Come now, unless I am very much mistaken you're an installer/reseller of charge points, and your first two posts here were promoting your own business with examples of your work and naming the manufacturer of the product you're selling!

If that is not an advert then I don't know what is. I don't have a problem with advertising, but as we discussed in another topic here yesterday, the growing tendency for people who try and promote products without making it clear that they are selling them is at best unethical and at worst deceptive.

I am going to guess that you are in the business of selling and installing charge points, this brand in particular, perhaps, and if I'm wrong then perhaps you can correct me. In the interest of transparency, I personally think it's always helpful here for members that are also vendors of EV related products or services to make that clear. There is a vendors section here too, specifically for vendors to advertise their products and services:
