How to charge with Ohme

To charge your vehicle with your Ohme charger, it’s as simple as plugging the charging cable into the vehicle’s charging port. When it is first installed, Ohme will behave as a ‘Plug and Go’ charger, and charge immediately upon plugin until the charger is unplugged or the vehicle stops the charge.

To make the most of your Ohme charger, and use the Smart features available, we recommend downloading the Ohme app and creating an account to pair with your charger. For more information on how to create an Ohme account, please see this help guide: Your First Charge

Once an account has been created and paired with Ohme, there are five key ways you can use the Ohme app to schedule your charging, providing you with various levels of control over the charging process:

1. Charge to full as soon as possible (‘Max Charge’)
2. Charge during the government off-peak hours (‘Regulated Charging Hours’)
3. Charge during the cheaper times of your tariff (‘Price Cap’)
4. Charge using a set target amount and ready by time (‘Dynamic Charging’)
5. Charge using a repeated schedule (‘Routines’)

The app also allows you to set up security features for your Ohme charger, to help prevent any unwanted usage. You can find more information about our security features in this help guide: How do I keep my charger secure?

Finally, the app will allow you to keep track of your charging along with estimated costs for your sessions. This information can be found via the ‘Usage’ page of the app – please see this help guide to find out more: Explore: Usage
