I thought this might be useful in here for anyone that didn't see it in r/electricvehiclesuk 👍

I'm looking to get my first EV soon and keep seeing threads recommending to get a 7kw charger installed but I wasn't sure if I'd ever see a benefit over just using a granny charger.

I only do 10-15 miles per day, anyway I built a little calculator that allows you to put in efficiency/unit rates/off peak times etc and compare 3 pin and 7kw to find the break even point (if any!).

Hope others find it useful 👍

For me it wouldn't ever recoup the cost. In future I may get one if we get a second EV, wondering if I'm missing anything or are many of you guys using only a granny charger?
