Lectron NEMA 5-15 Level 1 EV Charger 110V

I liked that it was near $100 on sale, and that it only pulls 11.6 amps on the circuit when in use (I measured it to be sure it didn't exceed my outlet rating). So far it has worked flawlessly and I am using it on a 20 amp 120v circuit that only powers the outside outlets on my home and one outlet in the garage. I noticed on my home even though my panel had a 20 amp breaker for that circuit and used 12 ga wire on it the outlets were only 15 amp outlets, so I did have my recepticles replaced with a 20 amp recepticles (almost looks the same) to be sure I did not overload it. However after monitoring its output on numerous occassions I realized it never exceeded 11.6 amps which is within a 15 amps circuit ability to provide safe usage (from my understanding you should not exceed 80% of your circuits capacity, so 11.6 amps / 15 amp circuit = .77, then multiply by 100 and you get it runs at 77% capacity). I mention this because if you are plugging it in to a 15 amp circuit, you need to be sure you don't have other devices using that outlet that use much power, because if you do you will overload it surpassing the 80% rule. For those who don't understand electrical, its a good charger, just be sure other accessories are not plugged into the same circuit when you charge your car if using a 15 amp circuit in my opinion, otherwise you might melt your recepticle. Great charger, good price and I am using it outdoors in front of the house, so I decided to buy an outdoor water proof outlet cover which is lockable, so I could plug in the charger and lock the cover so nobody can just walk up and unplug it and walk off with it. The outlet cover was bought on amazon as well as the lockable J1772 fixture/cable holder. That way when I leave for work and I am not using it, others can't walk off with the charger or plug in their vehicle to it (just in case another was thinking of utilizing my charger - very unlikely I know, but people do odd things these years). In case anyone else is trying to set theirs up in front of the house as well so you can keep your vehicle charged overnight here are the cover and fixture/cable holder descriptions I used to set this up: J1772 EV Charger Nozzle Holster Dock, with Anti-Theft Password Lock, and TayMac MX3300 RaynGuard Extra Duty Metal Weatherproof in-Use Cover, 1-Gang, Gray. Hopefully others will find this useful, both the holder and fixture cover are very easy to install and everything was up and running in about 30 minutes or so.
