    Thx, Kezo I have looked into these and my council is not a fan, is also Edion Protect EV Cable Protector

    EV charging cables trailing across the public highway
    The County Council does not permit any cable to be placed across the public highway; as it represents a health and safety hazard, and an impediment to the safe use of the highway by the visually and/or mobility impaired, or other affected user groups.

    Under the Highways Act 1980 action may be taken to remove cables that are deemed unsuitable or unsafe. This method of on-street EV charging is therefore not considered a suitable approach for residents without off-street parking provision to charge their EV on-street.

    No mention of them at all on there site. So I guess I could get one and just play dumb, odds are though my next door neighbour would complain to council the moment they see it.

    I mostly only will charge at night when the eon tariff is 6.7p and it’s not everyday I charge more like once a week.

    I do have a charger installed, but my offroad space is tiny and its a huge effort to get the ex30 on there, so anything bigger is a no and restricts the size of BEV I can get and it would certainly make life easier when I need to charge. Which is why I paid extra for the 8m tethered.

    The terms of the Kerbo do seem mind-blowing to me and wasn’t quote what I was expecting, them to be.
