UNBOXING OUR NEW DC FAST CHARGER WITH OVER 200KWH OF BATTERY STORAGE - XCHARGE NZS

EV Channels Review

The Out of Spec Reviews team unboxes the XCharge NZS, a 233 kWh battery-integrated DC fast charger. The unit boasts bidirectional charging capabilities and can backfeed power to the building during outages. While the unboxing reveals impressive build quality and features like robust cable management and an integrated credit card reader, the team notes the absence of power modules, requiring a second shipment. They highlight the LFP battery chemistry for safety and longevity. The review contrasts this unit with a simpler, all-in-one DC charger, emphasizing the XCharge's suitability for specific use cases like rural areas or managing peak demand charges. Installation plans are detailed, including quotes from contractors and the potential for public access. The team expresses excitement for the bidirectional capabilities and the learning opportunities this advanced charging system presents.
