Frequently
Asked
Questions
Why do I need a site-survey?
As each venue is different, a survey of your electrical infrastructure is needed to determine exact installation costs. Our certified installers will advise you on the exact location for installing chargepoints and how many you can install based on your supply. We will then provide you with a detailed survey report and a proposal.
Should I install 7kW or 22kW?
For most self-catering properties, we recommend 7kW for two reasons. (1) A single-phase 7kW 32A chargepoint can be retrofitted into most existing supplies without any upgrades or danger of reaching the capacity. (2) Most cars do not accept 22kW charging. We do however, offer 22kW AC chargepoints for venues who have capacity and who may benefit from it.
How will my guests charge their cars?
All they will have to do is follow the simple instructions on the complimentary signs we provide: 1. Install the VoltShare mobile app, 2. Scan the QR code on the chargepoint, 3. Add a valid payment card, 4. Start charging!
How long does it take to charge a car?
While it depends on the battery size of the car, most drivers charge between 2-4 hours per visit. This gives them a range of about 50-100 miles. For guests staying overnight, they are likely to charge through the night for a full charge.
