Ratings and reviews

very good unit. easy to use. have it set up so no one can steal power. sometimes have to reset that function as when I tell it to start charging it won't work. so I have to put it back to auto start. after a few uses, I can lock it up again. I still would recommend this product over all others. one thing I miss is you have to communicate through type chat. I prefer voice chat so you can clear up misunderstanding more easily.

App was easy to set up and connect to my Maxicharger Home. Seems to show useful charging statistics, though they disappear when it stops charging. If you leave the app for a few hours and reopen it, it will say the charger is offline and that you need to connect via Bluetooth. There's a button to connect the Bluetooth, but when you tap it, it makes a click sound but otherwise does nothing. At that point you have to close and reset the app. After that, it seems to work ok again for a while.

Oct 2022 update makes it harder to adjust the power on the fly, since they removed it from the "View More" graph screen, and fails to fix the issue where the indicated max charge current on the main settings screen does NOT match my chosen setting at the time. So often have to adjust down from my absolute max (48 amps) versus starting from where it actually is, e.g., 6 amps. AND if you open the app by touching the "charging started" Notification, there is NO WAY to adjust charging amps at all!
