FAQ
USING THE CHARGES
Is my vehicle compatible with the chargers?
Yes, your vehicle is compatible with Stekerr chargers. Namely, all our AC chargers come with a Type 2 socket or Type 2 cable, standardized charging connectors in Europe. Our DC chargers come with all standard connectors for fast charging (CCS2 and CHAdeMO), as well as a Type 2 connector for AC charging.
How to use the chargers?
Using Stekerr chargers is very simple. If the charging station has an integrated cable – it is enough to plug it into the car. In case the charging station does not have an integrated cable, it is necessary to use your own. Depending on the settings of the owner and the settings you choose yourself as the owner, charging stations may require authorization with an RFID card or a specific charging application to start charging.
How long does it take to charge the vehicle?
It is impossible to give a precise answer because the charging speed depends on various factors, among which are the capacity, heating and status of the battery itself. On average, charging a plug-in hybrid vehicle at an AC charger takes 1.5 hours, and an average fully electric car takes between 5 and 6 hours for a 100% charged battery. Our DC charger charges your battery to 100% between 20 minutes and 1.5 hours.

What type of charger do I need?

Some of the goals can be charging a private vehicle, a fleet of vehicles in a company or, for example, charging for charging in public areas.

Who can install a charger for me?
The charging station can only be installed by an authorized electrician, observing all the rules of the profession and adhering to all the requirements of our test report. If you do not have the option of hiring an electrician, safe installation and commissioning can be done by Stekerr or one of our partners.
Can others use my charging station without permission and can someone turn off the vehicle being charged?
You can set Stekerr chargers to the mode of operation that suits you best. If you decide on a mode of operation that requires authorization via an RFID card and/or authorization via a charging application, no one without a suitable RFID card can start charging.
The charging vehicle locks the connector so it cannot be turned off without re-authorization.
