Frequently asked questions 

Ohme
Ohme has three security settings designed to provide you with peace of mind during every charging session. ‘Approve each plugin,’ gives you control over who can access your charger. ‘Lock charger buttons’ safeguards your charging session against unauthorised tampering by preventing anyone from altering the settings or interrupting the session once you’ve plugged in. ‘Sleep when inactive’ ensures energy efficiency and privacy by automatically turning off the display and indicator lights after plug-in, reducing unnecessary power consumption and drawing less attention to your charger.

Pod Point
The Solo 3S has a remote locking function that is available via the Pod Point app. If your chargepoint will be out of range of the home Wi-Fi, then we recommend purchasing a physical Solo 3S key lock. When locked, this blocks the flow of electricity and prevents unauthorised use of the chargepoint.

You can charge one vehicle at a time.

Each of our partnered suppliers will work with you to complete a home survey which will determine if a home charger is suitable at your home.

This will depend on the size of the battery in your vehicle and the home charger that you select. Most customers opt for a 7kw charger which can charge an EQA from 0-100% between 10hrs-10hrs 45mins*.  We recommend charging your car to 80% charge to prolong it’s battery life.

*When looking to achieve the industry comparable range figure shown, a charge of 100% is required, however when maximum range isn’t required, charging to 80% is recommended to maximise the life of the battery. Figures shown are for comparability purposes; only compare with other cars tested to the same technical procedures. Figures may not reflect real life driving results, which will depend upon a number of factors including the starting charge of the battery, factory-fitted options, accessories fitted (post registration), variations in weather, driving styles and vehicle load. Further information about the test used to establish range, power consumption and CO₂ figures can be found at http://www.mercedes-benz.co.uk/WLTP.

This will depend on your energy tariff. Both Pod Point and Ohme offer access to some great Electric Vehicle energy tariffs that offer some fantastic charging rates per k/W.
