Our opinion
The buying view.
EDITORIAL OPINION - BASED ON THE CITED RESEARCH
“A strong lower-cost smart charger when solar diversion is not required at purchase. Compare it with the E2 Core before paying for the $349 upgrade, because the Core includes solar control for a smaller total step-up at today's published prices.”
Equipment allowance
$799 before professional installation.
Installation planning range
About $800–$1,500 for straightforward work; commonly $1,500–$3,000+ with longer runs, upgrades or strata complexity.
03
Cons and watch-outs
What to verify.
Solar diversion is not included and receives no finder scoring credit at the base price.
Professional installation is required and is not included in the $799 hardware price.
Smart control, monitoring and updates depend on internet access; Evnex documents limited offline operation without smart features.
Ask the installer to identify the exact model, protection, CTs/meters, cable route, commissioned current and energy-platform compatibility in writing.
