'Sorry Ricky' It was just too good not to! Especially given how well you repaired it. Plus shows the day-to-day realities of Installation work. I think we would all agree you're a natural and we would love to do more vids with you!
Awesome video, well done Ricky and Jamie, lovely install and awesome charger, installed a few now and more than happy with them, and I agree that clamp for the mains plug is CLASS
Hi Lee, It really does depend on the installation you are working on, If the installation already has 'SPD' Surge Protection in the CU, then no you're already covered no need to buy more SPDs. If there's no SPD in the CU then yes, we would advise you to put one in. Aside from fluctuations in the grid and lightning strikes SPDs help protect your installation from transient voltage. All our BG Fortress range incorporates SPDs as standard so if you were installing this with one of our garage CU's kits then you're covered again. Hope this helps!
Why are the wall chargers so complicated inside, why all the electronics while the car's BMS does the work. So much money for a simple upgraded socket!
I get your point about the complexity of wall chargers seeming unnecessary. However, the electronics inside ensure safety, prevent overheating, and enable features like remote monitoring and scheduling. While it adds to the cost, it's essential for a reliable and convenient charging experience, crucial for EV adoption. We do offer a fantastic range of mode 2 charging leads, you can use these with a regular 13amp socket. You may find they take longer to charge your vehicle but they're a good option to have.
Quality install Ricky 💪🏻
Cheers mate 😎
