The right one Mobile charging station Suitable for you!

Go on trips with an electric vehicle? This is still a challenge for many. In order to be able to load anywhere, a mobile charging station is therefore required. With this you can use the associated adapter to load almost any socket and with any electric car. Loading on a Schuko socket or at different CEE sockets is no longer a problem. In this comparison, we look at 2 of the most popular alternatives and introduce you to your advantages and disadvantages. So you can choose the variant that suits you best. 

Juice Booster 2

	Advantages		Disadvantages
	High security		No evidence of approval for electricity network operators in accordance with VDE-AR-N 4100: 2019-04
	High reliability		No app
	Very robust & stable
	Coded adapter for different sockets, connectors of high quality and massively processed

The Juice Booster Is one of the most popular mobile charging stations on the market and has introduced the Swiss manufacturer Juice Technology to a high quality and reliability image. The clean workmanship and the high -quality quality can be felt when you touch. With the Juice Booster 2 you can load up to 32 A 3-phase and thus achieve a charging capacity of 22 kW. Even if most vehicles cannot currently perform this service, the Juice Booster 2 is therefore equipped for the future. The Juice Booster 2 is very robust and consists of a stable aluminum housing. The Juice Booster 2 can also be placed on the floor and used for charging. He also has one for this Transport protection of up to 3 tons. This processing quality can also be found in the Juice Connector again. The adapters included on this are connected depending on the set. The plugs are all fit. In the case of household sockets, a temperature sensor is also used, which interrupts the load when the temperatures are too high on the plug connection. 

What also makes the Juice Booster so popular are the versatile uses. As 3-in-1 solution On the one hand, it can be used as a wall box at home with the right wall bracket. It is then removed from the bracket for on the go and as the third option, it can be used as type 2 charging cable with the additional type 2 plugs (contained in EV and Master Travel Set). Everything together is stored perfectly in the supplied suitcase, does not fly around in the car and can also be attached firmly in the trunk through Velcro. 

In addition to robustness and practicality, the Juice Booster also scores with high security. It is equipped as standard with an FI circuit breaker against error currents (alternating current 30mA and DC 6MA). 

Nrgkick

	Advantages		Disadvantages
	App for the cell phone with control and charging reports		Adapter & transport bag must be bought separately
	Updateable & thus future -proof		Haptics & materials
	Also with a SIM card for data transfer without WLAN and Bluetooth

As an alternative to the top dog “Juice Booster”, we present that Nrgkick before. The mobile charging station scores particularly when it comes to communication, security and intelligence. The Austrian manufacturer offers an app for the cell phone with which you can control the NRG kick. Communication takes place via Bluetooth or via domestic WiFi. Optionally, the NRGKICK can also send information from anywhere via an integrated SIM card to its owner. Other digital strengths are the detailed information about costs and charging processes. Over a selected period, you can easily create charging reports. In addition, the NRG kick is update and therefore future -proof.

But NRGKICK also offers innovations with security. If you separate a plug before the loading process is ended, the NRG kick recognizes this and cuts the current, so that no arc is generated. But not only contacts are secured, incorrectly connected sockets are also automatically recognized and here, too, the Schukostecker is equipped with a temperature sensor. Further protective measures are blackout protection through autonomous charging management. Through this, the NRG kick recognizes when the voltage of a network falls and adapts the charging capacity.

Juice Booster or NRGKICK?

We cannot give a clear recommendation for one of the two alternatives. We cannot advise against any. Obviously, the Juice Booster 2 and the NRG kick show many advantages. In the following points the two differ significantly:

The NRGKICK is a master communications. It has much more intelligent features than the Juice Booster 2. The app enables the creation of charging reports and taxes of the charging station. The security features are also a clear plus. But if you are looking for a reliable and, above all, high -quality charging station, you will always fulfill its function with the Juice Booster 2.

KfW funding

Both mobile charging solutions are also available with a KfW funding. With the Juice Booster 2, this solution is called Charger Easy 1 and comes with an additional box that is installed firmly on the wall. The load can be started with an RFID card via this box and the charging current is limited to 11 kW to meet the requirements of the KfW. In the NRGKICK KfW Select, a stationary bracket must be attached to the wall. This also limits the charging capacity to 11 kW and makes the NRG kick a stationary charging station.
