Easee One — UK Compact EV Charger Review 2026

Why pick the Easee One?

Easee is a Norwegian manufacturer (founded in Stavanger, 2018) that designed the One specifically to be the smallest possible OZEV-approved 7 kW charger. The unit measures roughly 19.5 × 26 × 11 cm — about half the volume of a Pod Point Solo 3. For UK terraced homes with narrow porches, awkward corner installations, or under-eave mounting, this matters.

It's also the cheapest mainstream option (£799 fitted, tied with Ohme ePod), making it attractive for cost-conscious renters and flat owners who need an OZEV-grant-compatible charger and don't have specific tariff or solar requirements.

Strengths

• Smallest footprint: ~50% less volume than Pod Point Solo 3
• Lightweight: 1.4 kg — easy installation in challenging mounting locations
• Modular design: internal components serviceable, replaceable, future-upgradeable
• Cheapest tier: £799 fitted
• Multi-charger support: can connect up to 3 Easee Ones to the same supply, useful for landlord blocks or households with multiple EVs

Weaknesses

• App polish: functional but less refined than Ohme or Pod Point. Some UK users report intermittent Wi-Fi reconnection issues
• No tethered cable option: untethered only — you use your vehicle's own cable
• Octopus Intelligent Go integration: works but uses static schedule, not dynamic. Ohme remains better for Intelligent Go users
• Smaller installer network in UK: mostly southern coverage; northern installations may face longer wait times

Where Easee One wins

• Narrow porches and entrance areas — Victorian and Edwardian terraced homes
• Block-of-flats common areas where wall space is limited
• Multi-vehicle households — install 2–3 Easees on shared supply, vehicles share charging capacity automatically
• Cost-conscious installations — cheapest fitted price tier
• Landlord small-block installations — modular, multi-charger sharing reduces infrastructure cost
