A solution to solve the problem of embodying a wall mountable electric vehicle DC fast charger is disclosed: a wall mountable electric vehicle DC charger (201), comprising a modular AC to DC converter unit comprising at least one high frequency AC to DC power converter module placed in the interior back of the charger, a cooling system with input and output channels placed on the back of the charger, between said charger and a wall (202), a wireless network interface and a central processing unit. In one embodiment, the unit does not incorporate a display for messages and commands and, instead, has the possibility of turning a mobile computational device (301) into a command console of the charger sending commands using wireless communication (302). It is useful for quick charging with DC electric power in different situations: private users, fleets, companies, condominiums, garages, car dealers and also in public places.
