New MyEnergi “Glo” charger

#1

Post by dan_b »

Just seen this new product from MyEnergi

Looks like a much smaller, more simplified Zappi, but not sure what the RFID card is for- is it targeted at public charge point operators/ companies?

Looks good!

One of the biggest criticisms of the Zappi has been it's appearance. I saw a teardown which explained how it was way more expensive to manufacture than competitors (bespoke rather than commodity silicone). And MyEnergi have basically sat still for nearly a decade while all of their USPs (solar integration and PEN-fault mitigation, for example) have been copied by competitors.

They did promise a V2G charger, but no sign of that yet. That'd be game-changing for me! I'll swap my decade-old Rolec when someone offers one of those.
12x 340W JA Solar panels (4.08kWp)
3x 380W JA Solar panels (1.14kWp)
6x 2.4kWh Pylontech batteries (14.4kWh)
LuxPower inverter/charger

(Artist formally known as ******, well it should be obvious enough to those for whom such things are important.)

I’m waiting for that charger as well, although I’ve decided to increase our storage as missing out an extra export and more efficiency during winter

I've been holding off on increasing home storage and inverter capacity on the basis that a V2G charger has to be released eventually! A 2-way 7.4kW charger combined with the mahoosive battery sat on my driveway would be game-changing!
