If you’re looking for a residential EV charger installation in Perth, here’s a real-world example of how it should be done:
In early 2025, we helped Jackson Slater — a Tesla Model 3 owner in Morley, WA — install a home EV charger that not only worked seamlessly with his solar system, but also gave him smarter control over when and how his car gets charged.
Even better? We beat his previous quote by $500 and had it installed within a week of his deposit.
Whether you’re a homeowner with solar or just want a reliable way to charge your EV overnight, this case study shows what a proper, future-proof setup looks like.
This residential EV charger installation came about in a way that’s as local as it gets.
Steve Randall — co-owner of Charging WA — had just purchased a house in Morley, WA. During the final inspection, he noticed his real estate agent, Jackson Slater from Peter Kuhn Real Estate, had rolled up in a brand-new Tesla Model 3.
Naturally, Steve asked the question most EV owners hear:
“How are you planning to charge it at home?”
Jackson had already started getting quotes for a home EV charger installation but was still deciding which direction to go. So Steve offered to help — not just as a customer-turned-friend, but as a local expert with years of hands-on experience.
Within days, Steve conducted a full site inspection at Jackson’s property, which had a carport (not an enclosed garage), a solar system, and required some light trenching to run cabling to the right location. After reviewing Jackson’s existing quote, Charging WA came back with a sharper, smarter solution — one that saved him $500, worked better with his solar, and was installed within the week.
For Jackson’s setup, we recommended the Ocular Home Solar Charger — a reliable, locally supported unit that works perfectly with rooftop solar and most EV brands in Australia.
We’ve worked closely with Ocular for years, so we know the product inside out. That means we can get spare parts quickly, provide direct support if anything goes wrong, and keep everything local – no runaround.
The Ocular app gives homeowners smart control. Jackson can:
It’s not just plug-and-play — it’s plug, plan, and save.
One of the biggest mistakes we see in home EV charger installations is thinking too short-term.
Jackson might have a single Tesla Model 3 today — but what happens when his partner buys an EV too? Or if they switch brands down the track?
We made sure his charger setup wouldn’t need replacing anytime soon.
In short: this install won’t need to be redone if they add another car, change models, or update their solar — it’s already set up to handle it.
At the end of the day, Jackson didn’t just want the cheapest charger. He wanted a solution that made sense, was installed quickly, and came with real support.
Jackson’s not alone. More and more Perth homeowners are looking for residential EV charger installations that don’t just work today but keep working as their needs grow.
At Charging WA, we install with the end in mind.
No cutting corners. No waving goodbye after install.
Just trusted products, local backup, and experience that shows.
