What is the Charger Lock feature?

You can now lock and unlock your EV charger with one tap on the ev.energy app.

Are you worried that someone will use your EV charger while you’re away? Do you rent out your property, and want to ensure no one can use your charger without your permission?

ev.energy has a solution for you! Our new Charger Lock feature makes it easy to secure your EV charger against electricity theft. Lock long-term or just a few hours.

You can lock the charger in two ways:

Holiday Lock

prevents your charger from dispensing any power at all until you turn this setting off through the app

Smart Lock

allows power to be dispensed through your charger only during smart charge times — anyone plugged in at peak times will not be able to charge unless you hit Boost through the app

Please note that the Charger Lock feature is only available for users with an integrated chargepoint.
