Ohme Home Pro 8M: The Flexible Smart 7.4kW EV Charger for Cost-Effective Home Charging

Power up your electric vehicle intelligently and conveniently with the Ohme Home Pro 8M. Building on the success of the standard model, this smart home EV charger features an extended 8-metre tethered cable, offering greater flexibility for parking and charging. Like all Ohme chargers, it integrates seamlessly with your energy tariff and can utilise your home solar generation to automatically find the cheapest and greenest times to charge, helping you reduce your EV running costs significantly.

Maximise Savings with Smart Tariffs & Solar Power

Looking to lower your home EV charging costs? The Ohme Home Pro 8M connects directly to your electricity tariff, including popular smart EV tariffs from providers like Octopus and OVO. Let the Ohme technology schedule your charges during off-peak, low-cost hours automatically. Crucially, it also allows you to harness the power of the sun; simply activate the Solar Boost feature in the app to prioritise charging your EV using surplus energy generated by your own solar panels.

Flexible Control at Your Fingertips

Whether you prefer using a smartphone app or interacting directly with your Ohme charger, the Home Pro 8M caters to your needs:

• Ohme App Control: Set charging schedules, target battery levels, track energy consumption (kWh) and costs, and easily manage solar integration settings.
• On-Unit Controls: Utilise the clear colour LCD screen and simple buttons directly on the electric vehicle charger for quick adjustments.

A built-in 3G/4G SIM card, with data costs covered by Ohme for the first 3 years according to the datasheet, ensures reliable connectivity for smart features and updates.

Convenient Charging with an Extended Reach

The key advantage of this Ohme Home Pro model is its generous 8-metre tethered Type 2 cable, providing ample length to reach your car's charging port easily, even if your parking space isn't right next to the mounting point (if 8m isn't needed, the 5m version is also available). It delivers a reliable 7.4kW (32A) charge, much faster than a standard plug. Integrated safety features, including RCD and PEN fault detection as noted in the product datasheet, ensure compliance and peace of mind for your home EV charging setup.
