WALLBOX Pulsar Plus 7KW EV CHARGER
WALLBOX Pulsar Plus 7KW EV CHARGER

In a sea of chargers that do the same job, the Wallbox Pulsar Plus stands out with an innovative LED status ring and an excellent mobile app.

The charging experience is as good as it gets and the charger’s footprint is tiny. It’s one of the smallest home chargers money can buy.

Wallbox Pulsar Plus tethered charger
Wallbox Pulsar Plus

The build quality is solid and you get a 5m cable as standard. The app lets you schedule charge times and there’s a Power Boost mode that gives you access to the fastest charging speed instantly, overriding schedules.

Downsides? It’s tethered only, the cable tidy is primitive (on account of the charger being so small), and the app isn’t class-leading. Ohme and Hypervolt have better apps, although the Wallbox app is by no means bad.

Overall, though, this is a great charger and worth the money!

Is the WALLBOX Pulsar Plus 7KW EV CHARGER easy to install?

The Pulsar Plus is as easy as it gets for an electrician to install, taking two to three hours depending on your electrical installation.

The Wallbox Pulsar Plus has high-quality internals

Thanks to in-built earthing protection, no earth rod is required. It needs to be installed with an external Miniature Circuit Breaker (MCB) with a max of 32A or less and a Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB) Type A.

The compact size doesn’t leave much space

For 7.4kW power single-phase is required, while 11kW and 22kW configurations require three-phase power, so are most suited to businesses and car parks.

The build quality inspires confidence during installation

The build quality is excellent and the circuitry is impressive. The circuit board has the Wallbox logo so it isn’t a generic piece of hardware. Everything is packed into the case to keep the size as small as possible.

WALLBOX Pulsar Plus 7KW EV CHARGER Design

How interesting can a black plastic box be? The Wallbox Pulsar Plus is proof that small home chargers can be stylish without silly gimmicks.

It has an innovative LED ring that communicates its current status clearly and everything is controlled via the myWallbox app, so all you need to do is plug the cable into your car (providing your scheduled charge mode is ready).

The LED ring turns off only when the charger is off

However, while the LED ring is useful, it can’t be dimmed or switched off when charging, turning it into a very bright night light (Wallbox is adding this feature soon).

A hack to reduce ring brightness is to buy 70% VLT tint and stick it to the front of the charger. But why should you have to? Come on Wallbox!!

Wallbox review
The cable tidy is effective but a bit untidy

The best word to describe the design is refined. It’s one of the smallest home chargers we’ve reviewed (166mm x 163mm x 82mm), and at 82mm thick, it’s significantly slimmer than the EO Mini Pro 2 which is a much fatter 125mm.

The gloss black front and matte black sides help the Wallbox Pulsar Plus blend in, but the LED ring ensures charging status is easy to see.

You can get the Pulsar Plus with an optional holster. The holster fixes to the wall and holds the charger head. It’s a neat solution and preferable to a hook, although the cable looks a bit fussy wrapped around the charger (see photo above).

The Pulsar Plus is also available as a white unit, which blends in with light walls:

Overall, the design is interesting, and we love the LED halo.

WALLBOX Pulsar Plus 7KW EV CHARGER Connectivity

The Wallbox Pulsar Plus connects to your home Wi-Fi and requires a strong connection for smart features to work. Like all W-Fi chargers, connectivity issues can happen however you can also connect to it via Bluetooth. Bluetooth will let you access charging if your Wi-Fi ever gives up on you, so you always have the ability to charge.

With Bluetooth activated, you do not need a Wi-Fi connection to manage and control the Wallbox Pulsar Plus, although Wi-Fi is necessary for voice control.

WALLBOX Pulsar Plus 7KW EV CHARGER – Voice control

The Wallbox Voice Assistant uses Google Assistant, letting you start or stop a charging session, lock, or unlock your charger, set a charging schedule, and more. Setting it up is simple and once activated you can control your charger with your voice. You can set up voice control to work through your Android smartphone or Google Home.

Charging speeds

The Pulsar Plus is tethered (no untethered version is available) and it comes as standard with a 5m cable with a 7m cable optional. It charges Type 1 or Type 2 vehicles at 7.4kW on single phase power and Type 2 vehicles up to 11kW and 22kW on 3-phase power, so it is right up there with the fastest chargers on the market.

Power Boost

An optional feature, Power Boost is a dynamic load feature that monitors your home’s live energy use and adapts charging speeds accordingly. In other words, it makes sure your charger doesn’t knock out your lights, refrigerator and other electrics, which can happen when your charger draws too much power.

Charging experience

You set charging schedules in the app and can manually enable charging at any time, with the app connecting to the Pulsar Plus via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. If you have a schedule ready, all you need to do is plug the cable into your car.

You can set the charger to charge your car to a certain level like 80% and charge at certain times and intervals. You can take advantage of off-peak energy rates, monitor your charger status and access real-time energy statistics.

The charger is robust and feels incredibly solid, with the charger head a good size with a grippy surface. It slots into a holster when not in use.
