I’ve been using the convenient but slow granny charger to charge our EVs since we moved house, but I really want to charge faster at the cheap rate, so I’m desperate to get a dedicated 7kW charger. But which one?! With so many on the market, I’ve asked fellow YouTuber and obsessive charger collector @NicolasRaimo to help me make a decision.
