EV charger installation in Bonogin
A 7kW home charger adds around 40km of range an hour, and with solar it can cost close to nothing.
EV Charger Installation Bonogin: local, honest, done right
A standard power point adds only about 10km of range an hour. A dedicated 7kW wall charger is around four times faster, and a solar-aware charger can soak up your surplus solar during the day instead of exporting it for a few cents.
We check your switchboard and main supply, recommend single or three phase charging, and install the charger neatly where your car actually parks. In Bonogin we can also pair the charger with new solar or a battery so it all works together.
The southern Gold Coast stretches from Coolangatta and the beaches of Palm Beach and Burleigh back to Robina, Mudgeeraba and the valleys of Currumbin and Tallebudgera, with everything from beachfront units to acreage. We look after Bonogin and the surrounding suburbs of Austinville, Neranwood and Tallebudgera Valley, so a free on-site measure in 4213 is easy to book.
- Plenty of Bonogin properties are on acreage, which opens up ground-mounted arrays, sheds and larger systems. Rural feeders also see more outages, so battery backup is popular here.

About Bonogin
Europeans arrived in the 1870s, working timber and dairy before bananas were planted. In the 1980s some of the old farms were cut up into acreage residential lots, which set the pattern for the area today. The name's origin is unknown, though one suggestion is an Aboriginal word for red bloodwood.
Acreage lots across Bonogin often have room for ground-mounted panels clear of tall trees, and properties with pumps and sheds can use plenty of daytime power, which suits larger systems with battery backup.

Call 0449 942 735How much does it cost to install an EV charger?

Can I charge my EV from solar?
Yes. A solar-aware charger adjusts its charging speed to match your surplus solar, so you use your own power instead of exporting it. It works best if the car is home during the day.
