Our new Portable Smart EV Charger isn’t as dumb as it looks
If you thought portable EV chargers were all the same, think again. We’re thrilled to unveil the latest update to our portable charger lineup — bringing true smart-charging capabilities, premium build quality, and the kind of control you’d expect from a fixed home wall-box.
Whether you own our 2.4 kW 10 A UK 3-pin version or our 32 A single-phase Commando socket variant, this upgrade is a real leap forward in everyday usability and energy management
What’s New?
1. Smarter App Control
Until now, the onboard delay timer allowed you to postpone charging by up to 12 hours in one-hour increments.
The new EVbee Home App takes that further — and smarter:
-
Set charging current directly from your phone.
-
Choose a start time within the next 24 hours (not just midnight to midnight).
-
Select duration up to 12 hours or until full.
Example:
At 3 pm, you know your cheaper tariff kicks in at 11 pm. Simply schedule the charge to start at 11 pm and run for 7 hours — finishing around 6 am. No guesswork, no staying up late, no wasted power.
This level of control aligns perfectly with modern time-of-use tariffs and brings portable charging in line with home wall-box technology.
2. Real-Time Monitoring
Through the app, you can now view live charging data — current draw, temperature, system status and fault alerts — at any time. Whether you’re indoors or checking remotely, you’ll know exactly what’s happening and when charging is complete.
3. Dual-Mode Control
Prefer to keep things simple?
The charger’s touch-sensitive onboard interface still allows manual adjustment of current (6–10 A on the 2.4 kW version) and a delay timer up to 12 hours. You can use it manually, or through the app — your choice.
4. Premium Build & Safety
Like all EV-Cables portable chargers, this model is built for reliability and safety:
-
IP65/IP67 weather resistance
-
Premium TPU cable for long life and flexibility
-
Over-temperature protection and NTC monitoring at the plug
-
Clear LCD display for amps, temperature, and status
Designed to perform — indoors or outdoors, rain or shine.
Solar-Friendly Smart Charging
If you’ve installed a solar array at home, you’ll love this next feature.
The updated smart control allows you to schedule charging during daylight hours, making the most of free solar generation.
For example:
You could set the charger to start at 10 am when solar output peaks, and run for 4 hours to top up your EV using self-generated power. This helps reduce grid reliance and makes every kilometre you drive a little greener.
💡 Ideal for solar households who want to use surplus energy for charging instead of exporting it to the grid.
Note: Smart scheduling features are available on selected models only. Please check the product page details for exact specifications and app compatibility before purchase.
