Our verdict

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Output of 11,000 W places EMB near the top of the brands compared on power.
  • Product types cover chargers and cables, keeping car and everyday charging in one place.
  • Support runs through phone, email and help centre, so help is available by phone and email as well as in a help centre.

Cons

  • The range only covers DE, so buyers elsewhere get no local market.
  • Product types stop at charger and cable, with no power banks, docks or wireless chargers.
  • GaN support is a no, so the hardware skips that generation of charger tech.

Who it suits

  • German households fitting a wallbox for an electric car.
  • Drivers who already buy electricity from this supplier and want the hardware from the same account.
  • People focused on fast vehicle charging rather than travel power for phones and laptops.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Shoppers outside DE, where anker trades much more widely.
  • Buyers after power banks or wireless charging, since mfish lists charger, power bank and cable and mophie lists charger, power bank and cable.
  • Anyone after the widest desk charging range, where anker lists charger, power bank and cable.

Who runs it

EMB is EMB Energie Brandenburg GmbH, based in Germany and working since 1991. It is an energy supplier that also sells hardware, so the chargers and cables sit alongside the electricity a home already buys. Support runs through phone, email and help centre, giving buyers a phone line, email and a help centre for questions about installation or a cable. The reason to look here is buying the wallbox from the same company that supplies the power.

Frequently asked questions

What does EMB actually sell?+

The range lists chargers and cables in charger and cable, so the focus is fixed installation and vehicle hardware. There is no portable battery here for a day out. Buyers who want a small charger for a phone or laptop are looking at the wrong shelf.

Where can I buy from EMB?+

The range is limited to DE, so a German address is the practical requirement. Brands such as anker cover a much wider set of countries. Anyone outside that market should weigh that reach before anything else.

How fast does the charging go?+

Maximum output is given as 11,000 W, which is well beyond the 145 typical of this category. That figure suits an electric car parked at home, not a desk setup. Cable charging is a smaller side of the range.

What support is available after buying?+

Support covers phone, email and help centre, so a phone line and email are there alongside a help centre. That suits installation questions on fixed hardware. Buyers who rely on live chat will not find it listed here.

Who runs the brand?+

The company behind it is EMB Energie Brandenburg GmbH, headquartered in Germany and trading since 1991. It is an energy supplier that happens to sell hardware too. The advantage is one company for power and wallbox; the trade-off is a narrow catalogue.

Does it use GaN charging?+

GaN support is a no, so the hardware on offer does not use gallium nitride components. That technology usually appears in small multi-port travel chargers. Drivers charging a car overnight will not notice, while frequent travellers might.

What is the trade-off against a charging specialist?+

EMB pairs 11,000 W of output with a catalogue of charger and cable, so power is high but choice is thin. mophie and anker list five product types, covering more of a household's charging needs. The specialist wins on range, EMB on bundling with an electricity account.
