Today I am replacing a 5 month old charger that was included in a car sale, in this video I am going to share with you why buying a car charger with the manufacturer may see cheaper, but is it really in the long run??

Another great install enjoyable watch. A bit of info for you I noticed you have the bug wipes I have used them but since I have found some far better wipes Ultra Grime they are brilliant.
@Brijoolz
Perfectly sums up what happens. Use local tradesmen who know their job and use quality products. I installed a Zappi, with the goal to install solar some time, and upgraded my garage consumer unit at the same time. No deal offer would have looked at the bigger picture. Knowing what I bought the Zappi for, and what the car dealer’s price to have a charge point installed, there no way they could even come close to what it cost for me to do it.

Another wonderfully professional job Adam - with a well explained video too. Viewers... If you're in Hampshire, and need an EV charger I can recommend Adam (SOTA) very highly. As you can see in the video, Adam knows his stuff, in detail, and does a very effective and clean install. 👍
@6r4metroman
Watched many of your videos now, collected my EV yesterday. Perhaps I need to move closer to be able to use your services 🙂
@TheRCBiker
If the consumer unit is just the other side of the wall, can the fixed cable from the ohme go directly into that or does it need a junction box?
@joanofarc708
Good tidy spark
@djgoode
Can see chargers being used like car mats. Something to sweeten the deal but unlike car mats get it wrong and it’s drastic.
@jonathanstephens7804
Great videos mate.

Lol great install. The tariff must be a super deal as changing the charger at i guess over £1200 with install . My question is how long will it be to break even on the saving. No differant to solar people talk down the oub avout how mych they save but when i ask the all important question . How much was your system, most people average £7k then i say cool so how long is your pay back . This confuses them . People nothing is free until your system returns your outlay first. Then its free

Nice install mate. 2 questions: Do you always use EV chargers with built in pen fault protection? And do all EV chargers have a load curtailment function? I’ve never seen you set up or talk about either……(Not to say you haven’t though lol)

I had that company do an ev charger install for one of my properties.. They were cursing me cause I am an electrician, firstly they wanted to fit a consumer unit in the meter box, I told them they were not going to do that but they could come off a spare way in the consumer unit, they told me they were not allowed to touch the consumer unit and didnt have the budget to do that, I said fair enough whipped out an mcb, moved around some breakers and cut down a bit of busbar and bobs your uncle spare way.. Then they said they didn't have to install an SPD, after confirming with NAPIT hotline as I am a member they threw their toys out of the pram and said I needed to pay for an SPD, I refused and said no the regs say you need one unless I say I don't want one, they tried to say thats ok then you can just say you don't want one, if you want one they will charge more, I was like no I will not say I don't want an SPD because I understand the risks. Eventually after I reported them to NICEIC they agreed to fit an SPD. Then I told them it was a looped supply, they had no idea and were not going to check, I told them they needed to report the install to Western Power. 9 months after the install they still had not reported to Western Power and eventually I had to report the install, they gave me the EIC but no buildings regs compliance certificate, they said I had to talk to the local council about that, I again reported them to NICEIC but thankfully they were like, we can see it here, whats your email address ill send it to you. Awful company, the problem is you cant compete on price unless you are willing to cut corners like they do.. Totally agree use a local electrician.

But the car salesman gave Mr smith low monthly instalments on his repayments for this install....You live and learn.
@paulf3353
Meh, I had this ohme for 6 months or so, constantly issues with sync etc, pita, removed it, got tesla wall connector, nice and simple.
@bigandyt
that ohmi looks awful, it's small but cables everywhere
@adamjwhite50
Ohme charger looks garbage mate,looks like one of them charger companies that will go bust then customers will have no support
@omelectrical_
Why are trade standards just going down hill these days, it’s a shame to see bad work standards. People need to take more pride
