    100,000 EV chargers are going to end up in landfill. Not ours.

    100,000 EV chargers are destined to go into landfill as most brands can't upgrade their hardware. Our won't.

    We go to extreme lengths to ensure our EV charger hardware is upgradable. Our inner cases are designed to be opened without destroying it. This means that chargers are made to not only stand the test of time, but actually get better over time. Of course you can have over-the-air updates, that's software.

    We've looked at other chargers and the vast majority (even the most popular ones) are not hardware upgradable or repairable. To open up the inner case (or sometimes it's just the one case), you will have to destroy it.

    To us that doesn't make sense. It's not long term thinking.

    We're trying not to add to the landfill. We're trying to give our products the longest life span possible.
