Ohme Home Pro 5m Smart EV Charger – Solar & Tariff Ready

Ohme Home Pro 5 m – Smarter, Cheaper & Greener Home Charging

The Ohme Home Pro 5 m is a next-generation smart EV charger for UK homes. Delivering up to 7.4 kW single-phase charging, it pairs directly with Octopus Intelligent Go and OVO Charge Anytime to automate off-peak savings. With an on-unit LCD, intuitive app control and Solar Boost for surplus PV, it’s a clean, reliable and cost-efficient way to charge — with a convenient 5-metre Type 2 cable ready to plug in.

Charge Smarter, Save More

The Ohme Home Pro 5 m is designed to cut your charging costs without any extra effort. By linking directly with leading smart tariffs such as Octopus Intelligent Go and OVO Charge Anytime, it automatically schedules charging when rates are at their lowest — typically overnight. This means your EV is topped up by morning at a fraction of the cost of peak-rate electricity.

For homes with solar panels, the integrated Solar Boost mode allows you to prioritise self-generated power. When your PV system produces surplus energy, the Home Pro diverts it into your EV, reducing grid reliance and turning sunshine into free miles. You can toggle settings via the on-unit LCD or the Ohme app, giving you complete flexibility day-to-day.

• Automatic off-peak charging: Syncs with your tariff’s cheapest windows.
• Solar integration: Maximise returns by diverting excess PV to your EV.
• App + LCD control: View costs, history and adjust schedules in seconds.

Example: Charging 200 kWh per month at 7.5p/kWh instead of 29p/kWh saves around £43/month — that’s over £500/year in typical UK homes.

Design, Build & Convenience

The Ohme Home Pro 5 m combines sleek styling with durable engineering, making it a reliable addition to any UK home. Housed in a compact, IP55-rated enclosure, it’s built to withstand the British climate while keeping your driveway or garage tidy. The integrated 5-metre tethered Type 2 cable offers the perfect balance of convenience and reach for most driveways and parking spaces.

Everyday operation is simple and flexible. The charger includes an LCD screen with physical buttons for quick on-unit control — ideal for starting or stopping a session instantly. For full smart management, the free Ohme app gives you tariff integration, live cost data, and the ability to adjust schedules from anywhere.

Connectivity is built-in via a multi-network 3G/4G SIM (free for 3 years), ensuring reliable updates and remote monitoring without relying on home Wi-Fi. Firmware updates are delivered automatically, keeping your charger secure and future-ready.

• Compact, weather-ready design: Neat footprint for walls, garages or outdoor installs.
• Flexible control: Use either the on-unit LCD or the Ohme smartphone app.
• Always up to date: Automatic software updates via mobile connection.
