Volt Time Two Pro vs Peblar Dual
Two dual-socket chargers, two different bets. The Two Pro takes a 44 kW feed and gives each socket a full 22 kW. The Peblar Dual, revealed 23 June 2026, splits one 22 kW connection across two sockets. Here is how they really compare.

Volt Time Two Pro
Dual-socket charger with the Plugchoice platform built in.
Revealed June 2026
Peblar Dual
Two sockets on a single grid connection, for sites that cannot get more power.
Where the Two Pro wins
Where the Two Pro fits
- ✓Full power to both bays. A 44 kW feed gives each socket an independent 22 kW, so two cars charge at full speed at once, not 11 kW each.
- ✓Two billing-grade meters. Each socket has its own MID Class B meter (under 1% accuracy), so you bill per parking spot. The Dual lists a single metering line.
- ✓Protection you can reset on site. 2× Type C RCBO sit behind a side hatch, and the Two Pro supports TN, TT and IT earthing. The Dual integrates an MCB, per-socket RCD and SPD, but the surge protection is TT/TN only.
- ✓One team, hardware and platform. Plugchoice management, smart charging and MID billing come with the charger, built and supported by the people who make the hardware.
Where the Peblar Dual makes sense
We will give Peblar its due. The Dual is built for a real problem: two vehicles, one grid connection, and not enough capacity to go around. Instead of demanding a fat feed for 2×22 kW, it splits a single ~22 kW connection across two sockets. For a car park or building that cannot upgrade the supply, that is a genuinely smart answer.
Now that it is revealed, its strengths are concrete: a full EMV card terminal (tap or chip-and-PIN, Visa/Mastercard) for app-free payment, a modular split backplate to pre-wire a site and dock the charger later, Wi-Fi 6, a lifetime-data eSIM, ISO 15118-2 Plug & Charge today and an OCPP 2.1 roadmap, all in an 8.4 kg single-person-install body. It is a finalist for The smarter E Award 2026, and the figures here come from Peblar's own spec sheet. If your site is feed-constrained and you want a built-in payment terminal, it is worth a look.
