The next Generation: WARP4 Charger

WARP4

We have been working on the successor to the WARP3 Charger for some time. Unsurprisingly, it will be called WARP4. Today, we are giving a first glimpse of what is changing and what will deliberately stay the same. We will officially launch the charger in early June 2026, with deliveries expected to start at the end of June 2026.

From WARP3 to WARP4

A lot has changed in detail between the two versions:

What stays the same

  • Proven polyester enclosure with stainless steel front panel (optionally powder-coated)
  • Modular design - from the outside, the WARP4 is barely distinguishable from a WARP3

What's new

  • M25 cable gland for two data lines - ideal for a LAN cable with connector plus an additional §14a EnWG control line
  • Viewing window for the energy meter on the Pro variant
  • Easier installation thanks to more interior space
  • Completely redesigned charging electronics with updated EVSE, new ESP32, and ISO 15118 modem

ISO 15118 opens up new possibilities

  • Direct reading of the vehicle's state of charge (SoC)
  • Autocharge as a complement to NFC authorization - the charger recognizes the vehicle
  • Pro model: hardware-ready for bidirectional charging (ISO 15118-20)

Launch

In early June 2026, we will release a new website for warp-charger.com. It will feature a significantly more modern design and, in particular, its own shop. Login credentials and discount codes will be transferred from the Tinkerforge shop. From then on, WARP products will only be available through this new shop.

Our new shop is online!

Dear Tinkerforge Community,

it was a lot of work, but as of today our new shop is online!
Your login credentials from the old shop should also work in the new shop. All settings and addresses in your user accounts should have been transferred. If anything does not work as expected or if you notice any issues, please let us know by sending an email to info@tinkerforge.com.

In addition, we have updated our ERP system. Please do not be surprised if our emails as well as delivery notes and invoices now look slightly different. As always, if you notice any inconsistencies, please get in touch with us.

We would like to sincerely thank you for your trust and support!
2025 has been an exciting year for us – especially with many new features added to the firmware for Wallboxes and the Energy Manager. Integrating products from other manufacturers is not always easy and often more complex than it may seem at first. Since we cannot have all systems available on-site, we rely on your support. Together with you, however, we were able to overcome all challenges.

For 2026, we already have many new features in preparation, which we will roll out as usual via firmware updates. Some of these are already available as beta versions on Tinkerunity.org, such as storage control or centralized user management for load management. Stay tuned!

Thank you very much for your patience and your great support!
We wish you and your families a happy New Year and all the best for 2026.

Kind regards,
The Tinkerforge Team

Shop Down – New Shop Launching on 30/12/25

New Shop Preview

You may have already noticed that our shop is currently unavailable.

We are in the process of upgrading our ERP system and, as part of this, also modernizing our online shop. As this is a larger project, we unfortunately had to take our current shop offline earlier than planned.

We will relaunch our new shop on 30 December 2025. Of course, your login details from the old shop will remain valid.

We appreciate your understanding and apologize for any inconvenience caused.

Booth at Power2Drive

Our booth at Power2Drive is ready! If you want to drop by spontaneously, send us an email — we still have free tickets available.

Tinkerforge with WARP at Power2Drive Exhibition in Munich

WARP Logo at Exhibition

From May 7 to May 9, 2025, we will be showcasing our brand WARP at the Power2Drive Europe trade fair in Munich.

This trade fair is one of the largest events for charging infrastructure and electromobility, and takes place alongside Intersolar. You can find us in Hall C6, on the outer side facing Hall C5 (Booth C6.173). At our booth, we’ll be presenting various versions of the WARP3 Charger, our WARP stand and the new WARP Energy Manager 2.0. Animated display boards will explain how to use solar power in combination with dynamic electricity pricing, charging electric vehicles, controlling heat pumps and controlling battery storage systems. Our dynamic load management will also be featured.

We’re looking forward to your visit!
