or Podpoint directly. If you register an account with Podpoint and put a charger in your basket but don’t checkout in a week or so they will email you a discount code of £75 or maybe more.
It was just before the government grant expired and they were one of the only ones who could guarantee getting it complete before this date.
the quote was easily done online and the work was done with no fuss
We used them as well and can’t recommend highly enough. Really easy to use their website, answered any questions we had and best of all their engineer turned up on time and did the work in about an hour with no fuss at all.
Paid $1700 (US Dollars which is 1300 pounds) over here in USA for installation and wall charger but have a larger home so he had to go 50 feet form breaker box to garage.....will get $1400 back in rebates.......bought a BMW IX which includes 2 years of free charging at Electrify America chargers.....travelled 350 miles last weekend all free
I am in the wrong game. A grand to do an hours work putting a charger in. Let’s say £400 on materials, testing and certifying. Two of those a day would be handy.

As a black cab driver I’ve just had one fitted by Eon. £650 reduced from £1050.00. As I do my own accounts I can say my house is a business premises which entitles me to the discount.

Motorbility doing free chargers if you qualify, we're going electric and my only concern is the effect of home charging on the bill, my son has a home office and uses a lot of power, and we'll be adding to that.

You couldn’t be more wrong if you tried 🤣🤣
what, you mean you earn more?
Time to get the toolkit out of retirement
That £400 or thereabouts will include a new 32amp ring main, RCD, armoured cable (normally a 15m run is included and the cable is not cheap), and likely a data cable as well. Normally takes a lot more than an hour!
All of that plus the unit sited and installed, tested, and signed off by a qualified electrician.
Why would it be a 32A ring main? Your domestic DB/CU should already have final circuit residual current protection on final circuits. This was the earlier message I was relating to.

Surely you've got a 2nd car for longer journeys? You can drive for hours across the USA without seeing anything!

Paid £510 for a Project EV charger, son fitted it for a beer and a ruby. Glad he is a spark

Probably the way to go, buy and get a sparky to fit. The problem with these sites that quote a figure without seeing the job is they are building in the average. i.e. I was quoted £200 for fitting one, but then it'd literally be fitted about 1ft from the fuse box, no horrible cable runs etc as all outside/in garage. Other people would be a lot bigger job.
Signed up for my first electric car yesterday, it arrives next Thursday so it felt slightly odd after all these years of visiting petrol stations to think that's all finished with, can't wait for it though first car I've been excited about for a very long time, charger is fitted Tuesday under the motorbility scheme.

Whilst it’s the right choice is it the economic choice with low mileage?
