Hello,
Looking forward to getting a new Elroq in early July after years of Land Rovers. (Yes, I know! But they have their plus points especially in a remote rural location like ours - and they tow well which has been important to us up to now.) Be nice to have something less expensive to run and repair!

Stuart,

Good luck with your Elroq.

I would recommend a "Zappi" EV charger especially if you have Solar Panels.

The Zappi has 3 charging modes "Fast", "Eco" and "Eco+" and also connects via WiFi or can be hard wired via CAT 5/6 cable to your router (this is the way I went as it is a good bit away from my router).

The 3 modes are as follows:
FAST Just supplies car with max charge regardless.
ECO Uses a combination of both energies but it minimizes using the power from the grid.
ECO+ Uses only renewable energy.

It will still work as a stand alone EV charger if you don't have Solar panels in "FAST" mode.
