MEGEAR Level 2 Portable EV Charger with NEMA 14-50 Plug - Adjustable Current 12A/16A/24A/32A/40A - Fast Charging Station for SAE J1772 Electric Vehicles - Perfect for Home, Office & Road Trip Charging

Picked this up after recently buying a used Cadillac ELR. The 12 amp portable charger that comes with the ELR (same as the Chevy Volt) takes up to 12 hours to charge the small battery from 0 to full. Not a huge deal, charging it overnight isn’t an issue for me, but I was getting fairly tired of unpacking and stowing the portable charger daily (I know, 1st world problem). So after some looking around decided to give this small charger a look since I don’t exactly need anything big or powerful.Getting a 10 30 NEMA receptacle installed was pretty simple, small investment with an electrician and thankfully my house breaker panel had plenty of space and ability to handle the double pole breaker that connected to the receptacle. I kept it close to the panel to save on expense and everything worked out well once it was installed (see pictures).Once the charger arrived installing all the pieces was super simple, I mounted everything to the studs on either side of my electrical panel after some fiddling and measuring (I got the 25 foot version, where I have it mounted lets me park the car in the garage or either side of the driveway and still reach the driver’s side charge port on my ELR), I got it all together, plugged it in and checked the myCadillac app to see how long the charge would take (it was at 0).4 hoursI actually got in the car to check the dashboard and confirmed the app report. It cut the charge time by 2/3rds. Couldn’t be happier with that result. The plug is snug and secure in the car and the cable is nice and stout but easy to coil up and hang with the handy little hang hook. This is billed as a portable charger but the nice case and box that came with it will likely reside in my garage and the charger itself will stay on my wall. The portable charger in the car is adequate for traveling and there’s always the gas engine in the car so I’m more than happy with this small investment.One oddity, the charger itself only had one mount point at the top which seemed a bit odd and extending the cable caused the charger to flop around on the wall a bit. I solved it by mounting a single point conduit clamp on the wall to hold the cable down. It’s for sure not a deal breaker, and you may not even ever want to hang it up, but I did. Also the included screws that came with it worked, but I didn’t like how short they were so I used longer drywall screws to screw everything into the walls. The pictures show when I have the charger connected to my car and how I stow it while it’s not in use. I really thought the plug holster was a great idea so the plug tip itself isn’t flopping around somewhere. The screw holes line up with the mounting plate with the hang hook but I wanted the plug higher on the wall so I separated them.Great item, very happy with it. And it came with a one year warranty.Edit: no idea why the pictures are sideways, I tried uploading them twice and then switched to my iPad. They were always turned. Tilt your head to the right.
