[@DavidTew84]

I got a same wallbox with u. Do u know how to setting the dip for 22kwh(32A)?

[@chestercheng75]

I have no idea. Need to check the manual

[@Samseng2008]

Hi, do you mind sharing the dip switch setting ? Thank you.

[@chestercheng75]

I need to open up and take the pictures. But you can find this information at the forums

[@Samseng2008]

May i know from which forum? TQ

hi chester cheng do you have any idea where can buy RCCB 30ma - 4p type A

[@chestercheng75]

Most of your local electrical hardware store will sell them

[@mansooriqbalnagori]

Does this charger comes with apps?

[@chestercheng75]

Nope

[@Talmighty]

How long does it take to fully charge your X5 with 22kW? Thanks

[@chestercheng75]

Depends on how low % of battery. But my X5 can only charge at a maxed speed of 3.7kwh

[@carlssonlim]

I thought BMW PHEV can only takes up 3.7kwh max?

[@chestercheng75]

Yes, max BMW PHEV 3.7kW which takes 2 hours of charging assuming below 10%. 3 Pin plug charge will takes 4.5 hours to full. My line of work does lots of short travels so I need my X5 to be juice up quickly

[@dylankhor3611]

bos..can share what brand and what ampere of rccb...mcb and isolator？

[@chestercheng75]

RCCB Hagen DBA663D - 63A Isolator Elica - 35A

Bro, May I know if BMW Wallbox can be install on single phase ? Or must be 3 phase?

[@chestercheng75]

This BMW wallbox is scalable. Can support single phase 10A to 16A but limited to 7.4kW. If 3 phase can go up to 32A 22kW

Hi i m going to set it up a wallbox for my apartment complex . So i want to know if i can see other user’s usage in the future if they want to use my own wallbox ?

[@chestercheng75]

If you're using the same BMW i-Wallbox as me you can set the system to RFID only. So without it, the system won't allow the charge, therefore preventing stealing

[@ginogesuale]

Can I install a BMW wall box and use it for any EV? Is it specific for BMW only?

[@chestercheng75]

Any EV that uses Type 2

[@ginogesuale]

Do you need a app or rfid to use it? Asking as I just bought a home that has a bmw wall charger and want to use it on a Chevy bolt

[@chestercheng75]

No. You can disable the RFID function

[@csiajoo]

Suggest you change the Cap Ayam brand RCCB and MCB to a reputated brand such as Hager or ABB

[@chestercheng75]

The one I'm using not reputable?

[@csiajoo]

@@chestercheng75 EPS Is cap ayam brand. You can't even find the company info or website

[@rukmandesilva2935]

Hi where did you purchase this unit. Cost

[@chestercheng75]

I brought it used from another X5 onwer. I think you can get one used for about Rm3k

[@liangwei84]

Check with you, do you know the setting inside?

[@chestercheng75]

Yes, more or less. Installer showed me the settings using the manual. Quite easy to switch if you need to step up/down

@@chestercheng75 Hi Chester. I bought a X5 and installed a BMW wallbox Gen2 recently but only getting charged 50% after 8 hrs. Can you share your dip switch setting

[@waihoonglew7314]

How much is the installation fee?

[@chestercheng75]

Depending on your setup, you have to get a quote from them

[@notification47]

btw, they did not do a site survey before installing? I believe a site survey is strongly recommeded before any installation works to be done or agreed upon

[@chestercheng75]

Yes, done all that, Electrician came, TNB came and lastly EVSE installer

[@vikram6969]

How much is this please? I have a Volvo XC90 Recharge

[@chestercheng75]

I brought my from private seller who also owned X5 40e. I seen some selling between RM3k-4k at fb and lazada

[@aaronhowaihoong4042]

Hi Bro, May ask how much the labour fee for this installation wallbox?

[@chestercheng75]

It's depending a lot on your current setup. For mine only cost RM400 from the insulator

Hello sir. I booked an i4 and it should arrive early next month. So how much is your wallbox, i would like to install mine so i don't have to visit the bmw dealer often.

[@chestercheng75]

I brought mine brand new from another X5 40e owner around Rm3,8k. There is a seller at Lazada selling new BMW i-wallbox. Btw congrats to your i4

[@KCHRider]

@@chestercheng75 tq for the info. So about the installation, the installer recommended by BMW or there are people who know how to install it.?

[@HHlah]

Wah nicela bro!! haha

[@danielc45]

Really? Do you actually need a Type 2 charger for a PHEV? Labor cost must be cheap where you live.

[@chestercheng75]

I need it to juice up my X5 quickly as I do lots of short travelling due to my work as real estate agent. If I'm doing office 9-5 job, then I don't need it. But then again I'm also preparing to upgrade my wife e84 x1 to BEV in 2 years time, so just preparing the setup
