Ohme Home Pro

Who the Ohme Home Pro suits

The Home Pro is for drivers on a smart tariff who want the convenience of a tethered cable and a built-in screen showing charging status and cost. Like the rest of the Ohme range, its core strength is automatic cheap-tariff charging: it targets the lowest-cost windows without you managing schedules. It does not divert surplus solar, so PV owners should look at a solar-compatible unit.

Key features

• Built-in screen shows charging status and running cost on the unit itself.
• Smart-tariff integration for automatic charging during the cheapest periods.
• Tethered cable lets you plug straight in, with no lead to fetch from the boot.
• Load balancing manages household demand to protect your supply.

What to check before you buy

• Tethered suits you? A fixed cable is convenient but less tidy and less future-proof than a socket — see how the Home Pro compares with the untethered ePod and the case for each cable setup.
• On a smart tariff? That’s where Ohme’s value lies, so pair it with a cheap overnight tariff.
• No solar diversion, so PV owners should consider myenergi’s solar-led Zappi — our Zappi vs Ohme comparison weighs the two approaches.
