Is VCHRGD right for you?
VCHRGD is the charger we recommend more than any other. The VCHRGD Seven is app-controlled, works with smart tariffs including Intelligent Octopus Go, and is neat and simple on the wall, at a great price.
Just as important to us, VCHRGD's customer service is excellent. If you ever need help with your charger, you'll get it, quickly and from real people. That matters to us as much as the charger itself, because looking after our customers properly is how we work too.
Best for: Most drivers. It's the charger we recommend most.
How we install your VCHRGD charger
Survey and position
We look at your fuse board, supply and parking, from photos or a quick visit, and agree exactly where your VCHRGD charger goes and how the cable runs.
Safe, compliant wiring
A dedicated circuit with the right protection, plus PEN fault protection as the wiring regulations require, either built into the charger or with an earth rod.
Paperwork done for you
We notify the network operator, register the work for Building Regulations through NICEIC, and give you your certificate.
Set up and explained
We connect your VCHRGD to Wi-Fi, set up the app and your tariff, and show you how it all works.

VCHRGD charger questions
What customers ask us about this charger.
Why do you recommend VCHRGD?
It's reliable, great value, works with Intelligent Octopus Go, and VCHRGD's customer service is excellent. If you ever need help, you'll get it. That's why it's the charger we recommend most.
Does VCHRGD work with Octopus?
Yes. The VCHRGD Seven works with Intelligent Octopus Go, and we'll link it to your Octopus account before we leave.
Can you install a charger I've bought myself?
Yes, we can install any make of charger. Send us the model and photos of where you park, and we'll give you a price to fit it.
Do you set up the app?
Yes. Before we leave, we connect the charger to your Wi-Fi, set up the app, link your tariff, and show you how it all works.
How much does a home charger installation cost?
It depends on the charger you choose and how far the cable needs to run. Send us a few photos and we'll give you a fixed price. For the same charger and installation, we'll beat Octopus's advertised price.
When do I pay?
Only when the job's finished and you're happy with it. We don't take payment up front.
Do I need off-street parking?
Usually, yes. The charger needs to serve a space you own or have the right to use, so the cable doesn't cross the pavement. If you only park on the street, call us and we'll talk through what your council allows.
