Simple and works
By Greg on Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2023
The installation was easy. I like the hook to hold the cord and the piece to clip the charging head into while not charging.The charger head clip orientation causes the charging head and some of the cord to stick straight out, perpendicular to the wall so it uses a little more room than necessary. this wasn't an issue for me, it doesn't stick out too far. I wish it could be mounted so the charging head can be stored more parallel to the wall.The charging block with the digital reasout is hung on a single nail or screw. This makes it easy to hang on the wall but acts as a pivot point, allowing the block to move when moving the cord. It doesn't have an effect on how it charges the vehicle but drives me nuts seeing it move and not hanging straight up and down. The level one charger that came with my 2022 Bolt hung on two nails\screws. It was a little more difficult initially mounting it, getting the spacing correct between the two mounting points, but it held the block securely.If this had two mounting points for the block and a way to store the charging handle more parallel too the wall then this charger would be perfect.

Didn’t last and melted
By James Tewell on Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2024
I really liked this charger, good value for the money, and had no issues until two days ago. I went and unplugged my vehicle in the morning and when I went to leave it only had 44% of a charge. Weird but ok maybe something was with the vehicle. I drove to work and plugged into the charger there. It charged up no problem. Came home and plugged it in. Cam out this morning and saw the digital screen on this unit was glitching out. Checked and the vehicle was only at 46%. I went to unplug the unit from the vehicle and the handle was warm. Unhooked it and touched the wire/cable. It was also very warm. I went to unplug the unit from the outlet and noticed a melted spot on the back of the 14-50 plug. I immediately shut the breaker to the outlet off. The plug was so hot I had to get a glove to unplug it. This was very concerning. So I drove to work as normal and again no problems charging there. I also ran to a public charger to try it out there and again no problem so it’s not the vehicle. The outlet in my garage is an expensive name brand unit for EV’s and has been installed and used for several years so my only conclusion is to seriously spend the extra money on a UL-listed charger. I made the mistake and man I could of burnt my house down.
