Other commonly asked questions

What happens if my vehicle integration disconnects?

If the integration disconnects for any reason, such as the vehicle manufacturer service going offline, the charger will default to charging at the maximum rate during the configured off-peak charging period, provided the vehicle is plugged in.

Do I need to change energy providers or be on a specific tariff for this to charge my car?

You do not need to be with any specific energy provider or tariff for your EV charger to work, it’s just advised to speak to your energy company as most offer off peak charging tariffs which can save you a significant amount in charging costs if utilised.

Can I still manually charge my vehicle?

Yes. Manual charging is still available when needed. Once your vehicle is plugged in, a Boost option will appear on the main Dashboard screen. Selecting Boost will immediately begin charging outside of your smart schedule.

Can I use waEV-smart without connecting my car?

Yes. Vehicle integration is optional and can be skipped during setup.

How secure are waEV-charge EV chargers?

The waEV-charge EV chargers can only be operated once the unique RFID waEV-Card is swiped or ev.energy smart charging app is activated therefore you’re fully protected from unauthorised use.
