“Beat the others we tried with added features.
I've tried a couple other chargers for our Fiat 500e, they were ok but the build quality just wasn't there and the plug was very hard to remove on one brand compared to the one that came with the vehicle.
Really happy with the charger from Primecom for one, all the others had 24-25' cables, this one comes with a 30' cable and that made a big difference in parking the vehicle in the garage in relation to the outlet.
This charger also has the ability to have it's amperage adjusted "excellent idea". When we need the car charged fast I can have it run at full power and the car charges in about 3.5hrs. But since we have solar I like to balance the amount of power it is pulling in relation to how much our solar system is putting out at mid day. We have a 9.3kWh system so it has plenty of juice but in the winter months it drops down. So with this charger all I have to do is adjust down the power and let it charge without going over our solar output, "I check this with the Solar Edge app".
This charger is also feels sturdier in hand and the plug is not hard to pull out at all, just like our original Fiat charger.
If you are looking for a portable charger I'd look strongly at this one, with the added benefit of being able to adjust the power it uses it makes it that much more versatile.”
“Simply a great product
I was skeptical of all the 5 star reviews, but it just works. David, who answered the phone when I called, was also a wealth of information on general questions about charging for a BMW i3. I.e. what type of wire to have installed for the outlet, which type of plug will set you up for the future of EV's, etc...Great product and great customer service. I have never seen the point in the extensive charging stations with wifi, notifications, etc...”
“Really speeds up charging.
I recently purchased a Chrysler Pacifica Plug in hybrid. It came with a 120V charging cable that works fine but takes 14 hours to charge. This new 220v charging cable charges in less than 3 hours. And for much less than a factory installed charging station”
“Great level II EV charger
After reading discussion groups and Amazon reviews, I was delighted to find this charger. I bought a Kia Niro PHEV recently and was thrilled to discover that I had an unused 220V dryer outlet in my garage. I opted for the 40-foot charger so that I can route it up across my garage ceiling and down to where my vehicle sits. Since it is a 16Amp only, it take ~2 1/2 hours to charge up my 26 mile capacity battery, which is sufficient for my needs. I am very pleased with this item.”
“Arrived in 2 days well packaged. Works great and will save me much more time and electricity than my 120 volt cord. I am very happy with this purchase and service and wish I had done it a year earlier.”
“Fast, Good Looking Charger for the Price
The charger has been working great for over a month now. Even though there were not a lot of reviews, I gambled on this one and appeared to have come out a winner. It charges fast and looks really nice in our newly constructed house.”
