Upfront prices

OUR INSTALLATION PRICES ARE A GUIDE

The prices on our website for an EV charger installation are the minimum cost for any installation, but your final quote will depend on a number of factors including:

  1. Cable length - how much extra cable is required to connect your charger to the mains.
  2. Extra equipment - some installations require extra protective equipment such as a Type A RCBO and/or earth rod.
  3. Complexity - depending on the cable route and other factors, our in-house technicians will assess how much time and labour is required to complete the installation.

Every installation and quote is different, which is why we ask you to complete an Online Site Survey so we can give you an accurate and honest quote for your own home installation. 

WHAT DO THE WEBSITE PRICES INCLUDE?

As mentioned above, the prices on the website are a rough guide only and you will need to complete an Online Site Survey to get an accurate quote for your home installation. The prices on the website include:

  1.  The charger (not including delivery)
  2.  Our Basic Installation Package - this is the minimum cost for any installation, but yours could be more.

HOW DO I START THE ONLINE SITE SURVEY AND GET A QUOTE?

  1. To get started, click "Request A Quote" on your preferred charger
  2. Fill in the short form.

Smarter charging

The Ohme Home Charger may look unassuming, but hidden under its exterior is super smart charging tech.
Slimline looks
+

The Ohme doesn't try to wow you with superficial styling, instead focusing on one mission - charging your car. Nonetheless, it is still a small and sleek charge point.
Dimensions - H239 x W89 x D53mm
Weight - 3.5kg

Mobile data connection
+

The Ohme is unlike most other charge points in that it uses a built-in 3G/4G mobile signal to connect to the Ohme data centre. This can be much more reliable than the WiFi connections of other EV chargers, especially if your charger will be located relatively far away from your home WiFi router. The data use is also free.

LCD screen and LED lights
+

The Ohme features a small, but handy LCD screen as well as LED indicator lights which help you quickly identify the status of the the charger, such as charging, waiting to charge or if there's an error.

7.4kW power output
+

The Ohme Home Charger is capable of charging your vehicle at 7.4kW, which works out around 30 miles of range each hour depending on your vehicle.

5-metre cable included
+

The Ohme Home Charger is a tethered charge point, which means its integrated cable is permanently attached. The Ohme cable length is five metres as standard.

The most advanced charging app

The Ohme Home Charger app does the hard work for you and can save you money on your car charging too.
Syncs with your energy tariff
+

By telling the Ohme app which electricity tariff you are on, it knows what the prices are and when the cheapest rates are available. This means it can automatically start and stop charging to help you save money on car charging. 

Intelligent charging
+

Simply tell the Ohme app how many miles you'd like adding to your vehicle by which time and let the Ohme do the rest. It will meet your desired target and charge at the cheapest electricity rates (depending on your energy supplier).

*Note - this requires the vehicle API without which some features may not be available. The Ohme can still charge your vehicle in this case, though - check out our Ohme product support page for more guidance.

Vehicles that support Ohme's advanced smart charging features via API include:

  • Renault
  • Tesla
  • Nissan
  • Jaguar
  • Hyundai
  • BMW
  • Kia
  • Volkswagen (excluding ID.3 and ID.4)
Perfect for Octopus Agile
+

The Ohme's ability to automatically charge your vehicle when electricity prices are low means it is the perfect companion for the Octopus Agile energy tariff. Octopus Agile prices follow wholesale costs with half hourly rates - the Ohme makes it easy to charge your EV on a time-of-use tariff like Agile.

Price cap
+

Don't want your vehicle to charge above a certain price, such as your peak day rate? Simply set a price cap in the app and the Ohme will not charge your EV unless prices fall below this limit.

Monitor charging costs
+

See your past charging sessions with details on start and stop time, energy delivered, and estimated cost.

"Green" charging
+

The Ohme app knows how carbon intensive electricity production is at any given time. If you prefer, the Ohme can charge your vehicle when there is more renewable energy in the grid.

Off-peak charging
+

Plan charging around your off-peak electricity using the scheduling feature. For example, set the charger to charge your vehicle between the hours of 12am and 4am.

Ohme Home FAQs

Is there a set-up and troubleshooting guide for the Ohme Home Charger?
+
Can I get a Type 1 version of the Ohme Home?
+

Yes, you can still order a Type 1 version of the Ohme Wall charger if your vehicle has a Type 1 connection. This is a special order, so please contact our support team to enquite about lead times and costs.

Can I get the Ohme Home with a longer cable?
+

The Ohme Home Charger comes with a five-metre cable as standard. There is no option to upgrade the cable length. If you aren't sure if five metres is long enough to reach your vehicle from where the charger will be, take a look at our guide to EV charge point location.

Is there a 22kW version of the Ohme Home Charger?
+

No, the Ohme Home Wall Charger is only available as a 7.4kW unit. Most UK residential properties cannot make use of a 22kW charger anyway and 7.4kW is more than enough for the majority of EV drivers. Find out why in our guide to 22kW three-phase charging.

Is the Ohme Home Charger "weather-proof"?
+

The Ohme is rated at IP54 for water ingress and is designed to work outside in all weathers.

How do I pair the Ohme charger with the Ohme app?
+

Our engineers will complete the initial app setup on the day of installation. However, if you need to re-add your Ohme charger to the accompanying app post-install then you can follow the instructions on our Ohme Home Setup product support page.

Is the Ohme available in different colours?
+

No, the Ohme Home Charger is only available in black currently.

What is the warranty on the Ohme Home Charger?
+

There is a 3-year warranty on the product supplied by Ohme. Any issues under warranty should be dealt with directly by Ohme.

I have a poor mobile phone signal where I live. Can I still use the Ohme?
+

The Ohme has its own SIM card to connect to the UK's mobile data network. It doesn't connect directly to your mobile, but your phone is a good indicator as to whether the Ohme will function correctly in your area.

The Ohme uses 3G and 4G across a variety of networks, so it works well in most areas in the UK but it is worth checking what your mobile phone signal is like in the exact location you want the charger. If it's not particularly strong, you may be better off with a charge point that connects to your home WiFi (assuming that is within range).

Does the Ohme Home require an earth rod installing at my property?
+

Yes. The Ohme Home does not feature built-in earthing protection which means an external earth rod should be installed at your property with this charger where it is safe to do so. There is also an additional cost to install the earth rod.

If you want to avoid an earth rod being installed at your property (as well as the cost) then we recommend upgrading to the Ohme Home Pro, which includes all of the same great features as the Ohme Home but has improved looks and hardware.
