Synopsis
SPLITVOLT SPS 01-031 represents a new product category, called an EV Splitter Switch, that shares your existing 240v dryer socket to intelligently provide full 24 Amp power on-demand to either your dryer or your EV charger / vehicle. Interfaces include a NEMA 10-30 male plug and one NEMA 10-30 and NEMA 14-50 female sockets–one for your dryer and the other for your EV. It delivers power to charge your car 7x faster, without requiring the cost, complexity or time of having an electrician install a new power circuit. Just plug it in, and Splitvolt seamlessly switches power on demand between your dryer and your EV, without user intervention. It displays real-time power usage information on an easy-to-read color screen and includes an internal circuit breaker for redundant power protection. It supports optional wall-mount for convenient access. Splitvolt utilizes standard household NEMA 10-30 sockets, and is compatible with common EVs from automakers including Tesla, Volkswagen, Honda, Audi, Nissan, GM, Chevy, Ford, and Volvo. Splitvolt is also compatible with mainstream third-party chargers sold in North America, such as Clipper Creek, Besen, as well as with our high-performance chargers, extension cables and adapters. For this configuration, you must set your charger for a maximum safe charging rate of 24 Amps.
