Steps
Once connected (see setup above), use the EV Chargers tool:
- Tell Claude your location, vehicle connector type (CCS, CHAdeMO, Type 2, etc.), and whether you need a rapid or standard charger.
- Ask Claude to use `ev-chargers` with `find_chargers` to search nearby.
- Ask Claude to filter to compatible connectors and rank by distance and availability.
- Ask Claude to flag any stations that require a specific network membership you might not have.
Example Prompt
Try this with Claude using the EV Chargers tool
Use ev-chargers to find compatible charging stations near Oxford, UK. My car uses CCS connector and I need at least 50kW rapid charging. Show me the 5 nearest options, their network, power output, and whether they require a network membership. Tell me which is the best option for a 30-minute charge stop.
Tips
- Always specify your connector type — CCS, CHAdeMO, and Type 2 are not interchangeable.
- Ask Claude to flag which stations require a network membership so you're not caught without the right app.
- If you need a quick stop, ask for stations with multiple bays — single-bay stations may already be occupied.
