Scame BE-W Home EV Chargers
Scame's first EV charger available in Australia was the BE-W Net, but that has been superseded by the BE-W[2.0].
Available in Lite, Business and Pro versions, the model best suited to residential use is the LITE.
The BEW-W Lite is available in single-phase (7kW) and three-phase (22kW) versions, with a tethered cable or without (socket model). The tethered version only has a 4-metre cable, which may not be long enough for some charging scenarios.
These chargers have three modes when Dynamic Power Management support is enabled, which requires installing an optional Scame energy meter (meaning it will cost you extra) :
- Full - charge from mains grid.
- Eco Smart - using power generated by rooftop solar panels, plus the minimum possible contribution from the grid.
- Eco - totally dependent on solar input.
The charger has dimensions of 235 x 370 x 115mm, has an ingress protection rating of IP55 and a working temperature range of -30°C/+50°C.
These chargers come with the Scame E-Mobility local WiFi app, compatible with Android and iOS. The app provides features including:
- User authentication.
- Real time charging session monitoring and management.
- Charging session reports and history.
- Charging station status.
- Adjusting operating mode.
It appears the BE-W Lite doesn't have OCPP 1.6 support.
Warranty Details
The warranty period starts from the date of purchase of the BE-W and lasts for 4 years - which is quite generous for a home EV charger. The warranty can be extended for a further 12 months for an additional fee.
