works perfectly! good for tools and gear

I ordered this to speed up the loading time of my Prius Prime. I installed a Nema 6-20 240v 20 amp outlet in the garage and the charge time has increased from 5.5 hours with the factory 110v charger to 2 hours with this one. The display is very small, but it's enough. Charging varies between 14 and 15 amps when charging. I put this in a garage and keep a factory charger (110V) in the car to charge when I'm with friends or family: It's very rare that you'll find a Nema 6-20 outlet that's used can (that's what it requires ) for fast charging). I'm not sure if people understand, but if you use a Nema 5-15 adapter to 110 volts you can still charge faster at 20 amps, but it won't be 240 volts and hence you will Ability / speed of not fully exploit this charger devices. able to.
