Sync Energy Wall Charger 2 Tethered – Smart 7.4kW Charging with Everyday Convenience
The Sync Energy Wall Charger 2 Tethered is a 7.4kW smart EV charger designed for households that want quick, consistent charging with minimal setup each day. Featuring a fixed Type 2 charging cable, it offers a straightforward plug-in experience while maintaining full smart charging control through the Sync Energy platform.
By combining dependable hardware with intelligent energy management, the tethered Wall Charger 2 provides a balance of convenience, cost control and future flexibility. It is well suited to homes where the vehicle is parked in the same position regularly and drivers prefer the simplicity of a cable that is always ready to use.
Smart Tariff Scheduling & Energy Monitoring
The Wall Charger 2 supports intelligent charging schedules and tariff-aware control through the Sync Energy app. This allows charging sessions to be aligned with lower-cost electricity periods, helping reduce ongoing charging costs without the need for manual intervention.
The app provides clear insight into charging activity and energy consumption, making it easier to track usage and manage charging patterns over time. This level of control helps households integrate EV charging into their wider energy strategy.
- Scheduled charging: Automatically charge during off-peak electricity windows.
- Usage monitoring: Track charging behaviour and energy consumption.
- Smart control: Manage charging remotely via the Sync Energy app.
Solar-Compatible Charging
The Sync Energy Wall Charger 2 Tethered supports intelligent solar charging modes, enabling surplus solar generation to be prioritised when available. This allows excess energy produced during the day to be used directly for EV charging rather than being exported back to the grid.
For homes with solar panels, this helps improve self-consumption and make better use of generated electricity. Charging behaviour can automatically adjust depending on available solar energy, supporting more efficient and cost-effective charging across the day.
- Surplus solar prioritisation: Use excess PV energy for charging.
- Flexible charging modes: Balance grid and solar charging.
- Improved energy efficiency: Increase use of self-generated power.
Tethered Cable Convenience
The integrated Type 2 charging cable provides a consistent and convenient charging experience. Drivers can plug in immediately without needing to retrieve or store a separate cable, making daily charging quicker and more straightforward.
This design is particularly useful for drivers who charge in the same location each day and prefer a fixed cable ready for use at all times.
- Integrated cable: Always ready to plug in.
- Reduced setup time: No need to handle a separate cable.
- Consistent parking layouts: Ideal for regular home charging positions.
Connectivity Options Across the Range
The Wall Charger 2 tethered range is available with multiple connectivity configurations. Depending on the model selected, options include Wi-Fi, Ethernet (LAN), integrated 4G connectivity and RFID access control. This allows the charger to suit different property layouts and connectivity preferences.
These options enable remote monitoring, app control and over-the-air updates throughout the charger’s lifetime, helping ensure continued compatibility and performance.
- Wi-Fi & LAN connectivity: Reliable home network integration.
- Optional 4G connectivity: Additional connection stability where needed.
