A 7.4 kW single-phase smart charger with Wi-Fi, solar charging and home overload protection built in from day one. Our pick for most homes.
The E2 Core is the charger we recommend for most home installs. It’s a 7.4 kW single-phase smart charger, NZ-made, with Wi-Fi connectivity, solar integration and home overload protection all built in.
You get the smarts — scheduling, solar charging, remote support and app control — without paying for features you won’t use. Backed by a four-year Evnex warranty and our lifetime workmanship guarantee.
Wi-Fi keeps you in control from the Evnex app, and lets Evnex provide remote support if it’s ever needed.
Charge from solar only, or trigger a one-time fast charge and top up from the grid. Your call, any time.
Automatically slows or pauses charging if your home’s incoming supply is at risk of overloading.
Every Evnex charger comes with the Evnex app. Set a schedule so the car fills up on the cheapest power overnight, follow a live charge from your phone, and see exactly what each session cost and where the power came from. If it ever needs a hand, Evnex can support the charger remotely.
The quick answer on cars, solar and batteries, and the power supply the E2 Core needs.

*Range per hour is the maker’s own figure. Your car sets the real speed: many EVs accept 7 kW or 11 kW on AC, so a 22 kW charger only charges at 22 kW if your car can take it.
Whatever charger you choose, the install standard is the same. Here’s what’s included as standard:
We're an Evnex Certified Installer. We fit the Evnex range every week and know it inside out — set up, tested and registered to the app properly, the first time.
Before we lock in your quote we confirm your home Wi-Fi reaches the charger. If it doesn’t, we quote the 4G-capable model separately — decided upfront, never swapped on install day.
Almost certainly. Every new EV sold in Australia uses a Type 2 plug. If you drive an older Japanese import with a Type 1 plug, tell us the model and we’ll check which charger and cable you need.
Yes. Solar charging is built in. You can charge from solar only, or trigger a one-time fast charge and top up from the grid. Evnex says it works with all solar setups.
We check that before your quote is locked in. If the signal doesn’t reach, we quote the 4G-capable E2 Plus separately so you can decide upfront. We never swap models on install day.
No. It keeps charging if the internet drops out. Evnex recommends a steady connection for updates and support, and the charger needs to check in roughly once a month.
They share the same 7.4 kW hardware. The Flex charges from the grid and gets solar through a later software upgrade. The Core has solar from day one. The Plus adds 4G, an 8 m cable and Tesla integration.
Not always. The charger needs its own circuit with a 32 A Type A RCBO. If your board is old, full or can’t safely take it, we’ll tell you before you book and put the work on your quote. No surprises on the day.
With a calibrated EV simulator. It loads the charger under real charging and fault conditions. We never plug into your car to test. We also do full AS/NZS 3000 testing and lodge the CCEW through the Building Commission NSW eCert portal.
Evnex covers the charger with a 4-year warranty for home installs. On top of that, our workmanship is guaranteed for life.
Every home is different: the distance from your switchboard, the wall, and whether the board needs work all change the job. We give you a free, fixed price on a written quote, with no callout fee. What’s on the quote is what you pay.
“I recently had Expert Electrical Services install my Evnex EV charger, and I could not be happier with the quality of work and professionalism. The final result is clean, safe, and perfectly set up.”
