Most home EV chargers in the UK are 7.4kW units (sometimes called 7kW), which add roughly 25–30 miles of range per hour of charging — enough to fully charge most EVs overnight. The top picks used most often by electricians are: Ohme Home Pro (excellent app, works with smart tariffs like Octopus Intelligent), Zappi (solar integration, great for homes with PV panels), Pod Point Solo 3 (reliable, widely installed, good warranty), and Hypervolt Home 3 (competitive pricing, good app). All of these require a dedicated 32A circuit from your consumer unit, installed by an OZEV-authorised installer. Most homes can get a government grant (EV Chargepoint Grant) worth £350 off the installation cost — ask your installer about this when getting quotes.
