The firm&#8217;s single-phase flagship product has been the E2. Last week, Evnex launched its new products &#8211; the E2 Plus and E2 Core.<\/p>\n<h2>E2 Vs. E2 Plus<\/h2>\n<p>The E2 Plus is the E2 with a name change and added goodies. It&#8217;s now provided with an 8m tethered cable as standard (previously 5 metres), and 4 years warranty (previously 3 years). It also includes <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.evnex.io\/docs\/vehicle-connections\"> Tesla integration features<\/a>, along with all the other features of the original E2. It&#8217;s still available in 4 colours &#8211; snow, stone, sand, and volcanic.<\/p>\n<p>The E2 Plus has a launch price of $1,299 (before installation). It&#8217;s not the cheapest EV charger around, but nor is it the most expensive by a long shot.<\/p>\n<h2>E2 Core Vs. E2 Plus<\/h2>\n<p>The E2 Core is a cheaper version that doesn&#8217;t have the Tesla integration and is supplied with a 5-metre tethered charging cable. Like the Plus, the E2 core is accompanied by a 4- year warranty. And you can have it in any colour you like, as long as that colour is volcanic.<\/p>\n<p>For this trimmed down version, the price is $999 before installation. Commenting on the E2 Core, Evnex CEO Ed Harvey said:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;We believe there is a gap in the market for a premium locally made product to take on some of the cheaper imported brands and we\u2019re excited to see how it resonates with consumers.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>There are devices with solar smart charging support from other brands cheaper than the E2 Core, some of which are listed on SQ&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/ev-chargers\/\">EV charger comparison table<\/a> (our Evnex listing will be updated soon). But cheap on price can sometimes mean cheap on quality &#8211; so bear that in mind when shopping around; and that applies to installation too.<\/p>\n<p>That Evnex are providing a 4-year warranty now is encouraging and somewhat reassuring. Most manufacturers only offer 2 &#8211; 3 years; even among premium brands. Perhaps Evnex will start a trend.<\/p>\n<h2>Features In Common<\/h2>\n<p>Both of these EV chargers are 7.4kW, 32A single phase devices<sup class='endnote'><a href='https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/evnex-ev-chargers-mb3129\/#en-90092-1' id='enref-90092-1' onclick='return hhEndnotes_show(90092)'>1<\/a><\/sup>. The E2 Plus and E2 core both measure 286mm (height) x 185mm (width) x 66mm (depth) and can operate within a temperature range of -25C to 55C; although there will be some de-rating at higher temperatures.<\/p>\n<p>The E2 Core weighs 2.95 kg including cable and the E2 Plus weighs 4.5 kg; including cable.<\/p>\n<p>All the other features of the original E2 are included in both, including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/ev-chargers\/solar\/\">solar smart charging<\/a>, overload protection, local load management (multi-charger), tariffs and schedules, and carbon monitoring. There&#8217;s an LED indicator on the charger&#8217;s &#8220;action button&#8221; showing status, and full monitoring\/control is carried out via the Evnex app.<\/p>\n<h2>Evnex And OCPP<\/h2>\n<p>As for OCPP (Open Charge Point Protocol) support, Evnex tells us all its chargers use OCPP for communication with the cloud, but that&#8217;s as far as it goes. With the proliferation of third-party services and OCPP-compatible devices, full <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/ev-charger-with-ocpp\/\">OCPP support is desirable &#8211; learn why<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re not sure if the E2 Core or Plus may be right for you, check out SQ&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/ev-chargers\/\">EV home charging guide<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/ev-chargers\/reviews\/evnex-review.html\">Evnex charger reviews<\/a> from Australian customers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What&#8217;s claimed to be the world&#8217;s thinnest EV charger has had a warranty and feature boost while retaining its slim form &#8211;
