Shimano STEPS EP8 / EP801 / EP600

Which charger fits a Shimano STEPS EP8 / EP801 / EP600 bike?

The charger that fits a Shimano STEPS EP8 / EP801 / EP600 e-bike, the connector it uses, and the wrong unit to avoid.

FITS

Use the Shimano EC-E8004 / EC-E6002 charger. A Shimano STEPS EP8 / EP801 / EP600 bike charges through the Higo / Julet charge and signal connector at 4 A, so the correct charger is the Shimano EC-E8004 / EC-E6002 charger.

A Shimano STEPS EP8 / EP801 / EP600 bike uses the Higo / Julet charge and signal connector. The matching charger is the Shimano EC-E8004 / EC-E6002 charger at 4 A.

Current Shimano STEPS packs charge with the EC-E6002 or EC-E8004. The trap is the older EC-E6000: it uses the same connector but no longer charges newer BT-E8010 units, so a look-alike old charger can fail to work.
