There are two 7kW home charging piles in the Xiaomi EV APP store. What is the difference between them?

Official answer

Xiaomi EV 7kW home charging piles are available in two versions: Basic (starting from 1999 RMB) and Multi-functional (starting from 2999 RMB). You can choose based on your needs. Their charging speeds are identical; the difference is that the Multi-functional version includes an intelligent lockable pure metal protective box compared to the Basic version. Additionally, the charging pile body can be removed from the box and used simultaneously as a charge/discharge gun, offering multi-purpose utility.

For these two charging piles, if you prefer to keep a set of charge/discharge guns in your car as a backup, we recommend purchasing the Basic Home Charging Pile + Mijia Portable Vehicle Charge/Discharge Gun. If you use charge/discharge guns infrequently, you can purchase the Multi-functional Home Charging Pile and take it out directly when needed.

Multi-functional home charging pile: The main unit can be taken directly out of the box

Basic charging pile: 640g ultra-light charging handle, operable with one hand
