Our Verdict

The Alchemy Charge Portable EVSE 10A is exactly what it says: a portable emergency charger that plugs into any standard Australian 10A outlet. At 2.4kW it's slow — about 12 hours for a 30kWh battery — but as a backup for unexpected situations, it's a practical $299 investment that requires no electrician.

What we like

  • No electrician needed — plugs into any 10A outlet
  • Ultra-portable for travel and emergencies
  • 8m cable generous for tight situations
  • Australian brand with local support

What could be better

  • 2.4kW very slow — 12+ hours for a 30kWh battery
  • For emergency/top-up use only, not daily charging
  • No smart features

Overview

The Alchemy Charge Portable EVSE 10A is the backup charger every EV owner should have in the boot or garage. When you’re away from home or your main charger fails, a portable EVSE that plugs into a standard GPO is invaluable.

Charging Speed Reality

At 2.4kW (10A x 240V), this charger adds approximately 12–15km of range per hour. To charge a 64kWh battery from flat takes approximately 27 hours. This is not a primary charging solution — it’s a top-up and emergency charger.

Practical Uses

Emergency charging at any location with a 10A GPO; overnight top-up at a friend’s house or holiday rental; backup if your primary charger fails; first charger while waiting for wall unit installation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this damage my car if used long-term? No — using a 10A EVSE is safe for the vehicle battery. It’s just slow.

Does it work with all EVs? Yes — the Type 2 connector is compatible with all EVs sold in Australia.
