Home charging unit – outline both positive & negative elements 

OHME Home Pro – easy to use the charger via the app. You can put a minimal charge into the battery or a full charge and can control how long the charge takes. Bluetooth signal has been lost a few times but generally reliable.

M&S Everyday Tariff – isn’t the best because there’s no off-peak tariff, so no advantage to charge overnight.

 

What public charging networks would you recommend to others and why?

bp pulse is good but quite expensive.

 

Insurer – outline both positive & negative elements

esure gave me a cheap quote, that’s it really!
