Masterplug Smart EV Home Wall Charger for Type 2 Electric and Plug-In Hybrid Vehicles, Tethered with 5m Cable, Mode 3, App Control, Solar Charging, Single Phase, Black, IP55, 7.4kW, 32A, EVCM3ST7B-MP

Videos and a good user guide on line to assist an electrician fitting this, installation and Monta apps all loaded and linked without difficulty.Seems solid enough and no uglier than more expensive alternatives, easy to fit with plenty of cable space and easy to use terminals. You’ll need solid WiFi unless you want to use the cat 5 all the way back. Simple setting on the CT menu to keep under the usual 60 A DNO threshold if needed.

I chose this Masterplug EV charger because of the known Brand and 3 year guarantee rather than several alternatives also sold by Amazon!Physical installation was very straightforward to replace my 11year old 3Kw charger which had suddenly failed! The Masterplug unit is quite a neat size and fitted on my garage wall directly over the cable entry point with a rubber grommet seal.After installing new cabling and 32A breakers the Masterplug unit was ready to commission!You need 2 Apps from this point which are both available for iPhone and Android and QR codes provided on the instruction sheet!Firstly the Masterplug App uses Bluetooth to identify the Masterplug device and to connect to your home Wi-Fi network!There is a small sticker on the instructions sheet giving the Masterplug unit Name and Password!Be careful to keep this paperwork safe in case you need to reboot the charger at any point in the future!Now this was the first sticking point in my installation because we couldn’t get the unit to connect to my home Wi-Fi network!!Despite removing and reinstalling the Masterplug App it refused to connect!Problem was solved by setting up an alternative Wi-Fi network inside my garage using a mesh system!Once connected to this alternative wifi the rest of the setup moved along faultlessly!The next App needed is the Monta App which basically switches the charger ON and OFF and you can set it for instant charge or a timed use!I simply wanted a timed use in line with my night time economy 7 energy tariff in order to charge my car overnight!The rest of the Monta App has no real benefit, in my opinion, unless you want to setup a Public Charging unit or search for other Monta linked public chargers located via their online map!There are other features in the Monta App like notifications of charge start and charge finish tine and a Kw Consumption! But I get that in my Energy providers App anyway!So in Summary, I really like the build quality of this charger !! It seems to works well so far and is easy to use, once you have worked out how to setup the Wi-Fi.Interestingly, I checked back after a couple of hours and I could then easily connect the Masterplug Charger to my home Wi-fi network so the temporary Mesh Wi-fi could now be removed !!I also bought a supplemental charger plug wall bracket on Amazon which holds the charger plug more securely than the Masterplug unit.

Great charger and value. Simple install and app setup.Connects via Monta app, the unit has WiFi and Ethernet connections. Works with WiFi 6 too.I previously had a EO unit that did not connect via WiFi or Ethernet and would require resetting after each use.Have used for a week now and no issues. Build seems great for price. Has a minimalist design and isn’t that much bigger than it competitors.Great, simple to use charger and at a fraction of the cost.

My electrician was very happy setting this up. Really straightforward without external management such as with podpoint. Seems pretty configurable but the default Monta Charge app seems pretty good too!Overall very happy especially with the price

Installed yesterday and easy to set up. Has synced with our eon tariff and first charge went well!

I am impressed. First off, the length is perfect for my needs, giving me much more flexibility when parking. I don’t have to worry about being right next to the charging station anymore. The cable itself feels very durable and weather-resistant.The charging speed is consistent and reliable, and I love how easy it is to plug in and disconnect. It doesn’t tangle which was a problem with my previous cable. This one just works smoothly every time, and the quality is apparent in every aspect of the design.The battery life holds up well, and I’ve been pleasantly surprised at how far I can go on a single charge, even with city driving.I’m very happy with this purchase and would recommend it to any EV owner looking for a longer, more versatile charging solution.

Great charger. App is easy to set up and use making the most of the cheaper tariffs.

Good quality product. But apps are awful. Took me two hours to setup but still failed to charge. In the end called customer support and was told I should have two apps to charge the car. It is be just a plus and charger. Why they make apps so complicated. I nearly returned the product to Amazon.
