Humax unveils its MX7: a vehicle-to-grid-ready home charger

Humax has announced the launch of the Humax MX7 – its second-generation EV charger designed for domestic and business fleet markets in the UK.

The Humax MX7 is a V2G-ready EV charger that enables users to benefit from vehicle-to-grid (V2G) functionality, along with multiple energy-saving and cost-optimising features. Suitable for both home and commercial charging, the 7kW chargers will be available as socket-type and tethered models from June 2025 via www.humaxcharging.com/uk.

V2G-ready technology

The Humax MX7 series features an integrated Power Line Communication (PLC) module and ISO 15118 protocol, enabling seamless digital communication with EVs. This facilitates vehicle identification and future-ready V2G capabilities. The MX7 range has been engineered to support continuous software updates, enabling the addition of new smart features and ensuring long-term performance, flexibility and future compliance. All future Humax EV charger models will be equipped with an integrated PLC module with ISO 15118 as standard.

Intelligent and cost-efficient charging

Humax MX7 chargers are compatible with most EV tariffs, helping users reduce electricity costs by charging during off-peak hours. Solar-compatible, they can also use surplus power from home solar systems for greener, more economical charging. Smart scheduling and adjustable charge levels provide complete control and customisation.

Engineered for safety

Safety is a top priority. The MX7 includes integrated temperature sensors, overcharge protection and a tamper-detection switch to ensure a secure and reliable charging experience.

Stylish and customisable

Humax MX7 colours

The MX7 range has been designed to harmonise with modern home aesthetics. Users can personalise their chargers with a variety of interchangeable front facias.

Installation is simple thanks to the charger’s hinged front panel, providing easy access during set-up.

Business charging made simple

The MX7 supports Auto Charge via ISO 15118, eliminating the need for RFID cards or apps. The user can simply plug in and start charging. For businesses, vehicle recognition streamlines the tracking of company car charging at employees’ homes, making reimbursements easier. The system integrates with leading third-party platforms and apps for enhanced management and operational efficiency.
