Both the myenergi zappi (7kW / 22kW) and Easee Charge Max (7.4kW / 22kW) support three-phase charging, offering up to 22kW on a three-phase supply. On a standard UK single-phase supply, both deliver around 7kW — more than enough for overnight charging.

On a standard UK single-phase supply, both will charge a Tesla Model 3 Long Range (75kWh battery) from 20% to 80% in approximately 5–6 hours overnight. Even a Tesla Model Y with its larger battery completes a typical daily top-up well within an overnight window. For the vast majority of UK Tesla owners, single-phase 7kW charging is more than sufficient — you'll wake up to a full battery every morning.

The myenergi zappi offers: Solar diverting (Fast / Eco / Eco+ modes), On-unit LCD screen and buttons, myenergi app, Octopus Intelligent Go and OVO Charge Anytime integration, Agile price-based scheduling, Dynamic load balancing (Grid Limit), Wi-Fi + Ethernet, no hub required, myenergi ecosystem (eddi, libbi, harvi), PEN fault detection (zapsafe). The Easee Charge Max offers: Easee app with scheduling and charge limits, MID Class B meter (±1%), Wi-Fi + built-in 4G eSIM (lifetime) + Bluetooth, Easee Link RF balancing across up to three Easee units, Household load balancing and solar surplus with the Easee Equalizer (sold separately), RFID / NFC reader, OCPP 1.6J (cloud) and ISO 15118-20, Integrated Type A RCD + 6mA DC detection; PEN fault protection on UK units.

Breaking these down by category: for connectivity, the myenergi zappi uses Wi-Fi + Ethernet, no hub required, while the Easee Charge Max uses Wi-Fi + built-in 4G eSIM (lifetime) + Bluetooth. For energy management, the myenergi zappi provides Dynamic load balancing (Grid Limit), compared to the Easee Charge Max's Household load balancing and solar surplus with the Easee Equalizer (sold separately).

Both the myenergi zappi and Easee Charge Max support solar integration, allowing you to charge your Tesla using surplus solar energy rather than drawing from the grid.

The myenergi zappi uses a CT clamp on your meter tails to measure real-time surplus generation, enabling its Eco and Eco+ modes. The Easee Charge Max supports solar diversion through its energy management system.

The myenergi zappi integrates with smart energy tariffs, automatically charging at the cheapest off-peak rates. The Easee Charge Max doesn't have built-in smart tariff integration — you'd need to set manual charging schedules or rely on your car's built-in timer.

The myenergi zappi supports compatible Octopus scheduling through its supplier integration.

The myenergi zappi comes with a 3 years (5 with £120 extension) warranty, while the Easee Charge Max offers 5 years. The Easee Charge Max offers 2 years more coverage.

For weatherproofing, the myenergi zappi is rated IP65 + IK10, while the Easee Charge Max is rated IP54, IK10. Any rating of IP54 or above is suitable for a UK outdoor installation.
