Review on Shentec Extension Charging Compatible Electric by Emili Hudson

Revainrating 1 out of 5

It's actually not an extension.

If like most people you are buying this because you have a car that accepts a J1772 charger plug and you park too far from the charging station, this will not help you. The one that fits your car is the J1772 Type 1. The other end is the J1772 Type 2 that you can find on European chargers. The description doesn't mention it at all and implies that it is an extension cord that is "compatible with class 1 and 2 chargers with j1772 connectors". This product does not make sense unless you are planning to transport your EV purchased in a Type 1 country to Europe.

Pros
  • Durability: Made of high strength ABS plastic, more durable for long term use. Its waterproof design (IP66 rating) ensures you can use it at all times.
Cons
  • Security
