Our Verdict

The Zappi v2.1 7kW is Australia's most popular solar EV charger for good reason. Its CT clamp works with literally any solar inverter, the IP65 rating handles exposed outdoor installs, and the 6.5m tethered cable suits most driveways. The ceiling at 7kW single-phase means charging is slower than a 22kW unit, but for 95% of daily driving the overnight charge will be complete by morning.

What we like

  • CT clamp solar integration works with any inverter brand
  • IP65 — fully weatherproof for exposed outdoor installation
  • 6.5m tethered cable generous for most garage layouts
  • 3-year warranty

What could be better

  • 7kW single-phase maximum — slower than 22kW models
  • No full open OCPP support
  • No load management

Overview

The myenergi Zappi has earned a near-cult following among Australian solar households. Unlike most smart chargers that require a matching inverter brand for solar integration, the Zappi uses a CT clamp that reads real-time solar export from any system.

Solar Integration

The Zappi’s three modes: Fast (max speed, grid draw allowed), Eco (charge only when solar is exporting), and Eco+ (boost to a minimum current then top up from solar). Eco mode dynamically throttles the charging current to match your solar surplus.

Performance

At 7kW single-phase, the Zappi adds roughly 40km of WLTP range per hour. A 50kWh battery will be fully charged from flat in about 7–8 hours overnight.

IP65 Rating

The IP65 weatherproof rating makes the Zappi one of the better choices for exposed outdoor installation on fence posts, carport pillars, or exterior walls.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Zappi work with my SolarEdge / Fronius / Sungrow inverter? Yes — the CT clamp approach is completely inverter-agnostic.

Is there a 22kW version? Yes — the Zappi v2.1 22kW is a socket-only 3-phase version at $1,645.
