Product Information

Full details

The Vorsprung Portable EV Charger is designed for EV and hybrid owners who require a reliable and versatile mobile charging solution that connects to any standard UK 3-pin household socket. Its primary benefit is the freedom to charge your vehicle almost anywhere, offering a maximum power output of 3.3kW with adjustable amperage; however, users should note that as a Level 1 charging solution, it is intended for opportunistic or emergency top-ups rather than fast-charging, and it requires a dedicated, robust electrical circuit for sustained 13A usage.

FAQs

Can I use this charger in the rain?

The unit has an IP55 rating, meaning it is resistant to dust and low-pressure water jets, but it should not be submerged in water or left in heavy, pooling rain.

What is the recommended amperage for daily use?

For sustained, reliable performance, 10A is the recommended setting to balance charging speed and electrical safety.

Does this work with all electric vehicles?

This charger is compatible with any electric or hybrid vehicle that utilizes a standard Type 2 charging inlet.

How long will it take to charge my car?

Charging time depends on your vehicle's battery capacity and the current setting. At 3.3kW, it is intended primarily for overnight charging.

Is an extension cord recommended?

No, it is highly recommended to plug the charger directly into a dedicated wall socket to prevent overheating and potential fire hazards.

Troubleshooting

Charger screen does not illuminate

Verify that the 3-pin plug is fully inserted into the wall socket and that the socket is switched on.

Charging does not start after connection

Ensure the Type 2 connector is firmly seated in the vehicle port and that the car is not scheduled for a timed charging session.

Charger keeps tripping the circuit breaker

Reduce the amperage setting to 10A or 6A, as the current setting may be drawing more power than the household circuit can handle.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High flexibility with 6A to 13A adjustable amperage
  • Generous 10-meter cable length for increased convenience
  • Robust IP55 rating ensures outdoor durability
  • Built-in safety features like Type A RCD for peace of mind
  • Easy-to-read LCD screen for monitoring charge progress

Cons

  • Slower charging speeds compared to dedicated wallbox chargers
  • Requires careful consideration of household circuit limits at 13A
  • Not suitable for heavy-duty daily fast-charging demands

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the Vorsprung charger, simply plug the 3-pin end into a grounded UK wall outlet and connect the Type 2 plug to your vehicle's charging port. Use the control interface to select your preferred amperage before initiating the charge. For maintenance, ensure the Type 2 connector is kept clean and dry, and periodically inspect the cable for any signs of wear or damage. Avoid running the cable across areas where it could be pinched or subjected to extreme pressure. When not in use, store the unit in a dry, temperate environment to prolong the lifespan of the electronics.
