As its name suggests, it is the fifth evolution of the eHome family, inheriting the proven reliability and trust of a European brand but enhancing its features and aesthetics. The new station will offer a customisable aesthetic and improved connectivity with an App to manage it from anywhere.
The new eHome5 has been designed to meet the needs of both EV users and installers. In terms of look and feel, the new domestic charging station represents a step forward in the eHome family. Its elegant and customisable aesthetic, with different models to choose, keeps the eHome’s essence. Regarding connectivity, its mobile App, available in six different languages, will help users authenticate, manage, and monitor their charging sessions. Moreover, it will allow users to choose or schedule its three different charging modes.
Thanks to its integration with photovoltaic (PV) energy systems, the new eHome 5 offers three charging modes: Just Green when using only PV energy; Smart Mix, combining PV and grid energy; or Boost, using the available power to speed up the charge. These modes allow charging the vehicle to take account of the lowest energy rates and the highest sun activity, helping to save energy and costs.
In addition, the new Circontrol’s charger monitors household consumption and can automatically adjust the energy demand to prevent blackouts. Moreover, it offers safer charging, thanks to its included DC leakage electrical protections.
Besides the advantages for the users, the new eHome5 also will be beneficial for installers thanks to its easy and cost-effective installation as well as for its seamless connectivity or authentication, even without an internet connection.
