Wallbox Pulsar EV Home Chargers Installed in Christchurch, From $2,248
Small on the wall, big on the app. Wallbox is the pick for people who want to see exactly what every charge cost them.
Why We Fit Wallbox
The Wallbox Pulsar Plus is about the size of a paperback and it is the charger people choose when the garage wall is on show. The app is the best we have used: every session logged with its cost, schedules that follow your night rate, and a Power Boost mode that reads a meter on your mains and backs the charger off when the house is busy. That is how a Papanui customer of ours charges an MG, runs two heat pumps and cooks dinner on a 63A supply without a single trip.
The Pulsar Max is the same charger in a tougher IP55 and IK10 housing for exposed carports and coastal homes, with an optional 4G module. Both carry a three-year warranty.
- One of the most compact 7.4kW chargers available
- The best app in our range, with per-session cost tracking
- Power Boost load management and Eco-Smart solar with the Wallbox meter
- Pulsar Max rated IP55 and IK10 for exposed or coastal walls

Wallbox Owners Say
When it was explained to us beforehand, the DLB system seemed like it might be complicated to live with. In practice we notice nothing, the car charges and that's it. The app is easy to read, the scheduling does exactly what we asked, and we haven't thought about a public charger in months.

More on Wallbox Chargers
Which Wallbox Charger We Fit
A Wallbox charger is the Spanish brand's compact home unit, and the two we fit are the Pulsar Plus and the Pulsar Max. Both run at 7.4kW on single-phase, both use a well-made app, and the Pulsar Plus starts at $2,248 supplied and installed.
Why People Like the Pulsar Plus
The Pulsar Plus EV charger is small enough to sit beside a garage door without taking over the wall, and it supports Power Boost load management once its power meter is fitted at the board. It suits a house that wants a smart, tidy charger without paying for the Pulsar Max.
Wallbox the Brand, Wallbox the Word
Outside the brand, EV wallbox is just a common name for any wall-mounted charger. Evnex, EV Power, Tesla and Zappi all make an EV wallbox in that sense, and the comparison table lines up every one we fit.
