🔌 Schumacher Portable EV Charger: Level 1 & Level 2, 16A, 240V - Charge Electric Vehicle Batteries 3X Faster! Review

Schumacher is a famous brand. Good quality item, always there. I have a motorcycle charger from them that is probably 30 years old and still works. With that in mind, I was excited to try this electric vehicle charger. All quality so far. I trust the brand and design of this charger and cable. Good length, connects securely and works great. I trust to leave him unattended and that is very important to me. I don't skimp on batteries or chargers because fires are bad!

I've had my eye on EV chargers for a long time. A lot of the 16A's seem a bit sketchy and I was nervous about basically burning my garage down. I finally pulled the trigger and am very happy with it. It feels very strong and the connection to my sheet is smooth and firm, but not tight. No problem using it - I had to replace the 240v socket with the 6-20 plug I use, but it's very clever that they include a standard 110v adapter so you can use it straight away when You need to figure out how to…

Schumacher is a well-known brand name for almost everything electric vehicle/boat related. I tried this on my 120v Tesla, which is what I wanted to do when I ordered it, as an emergency charger if I need to go to a friend's house and can't get to the charging station/port. Happy to say it works great with my Tesla! I will keep it in the trunk as an emergency charger while the charger my Tesla came with was plugged in at home. Third party products manufactured today. I'm not worried about…

Great charger! This Schumacher EV charger charges at 16 amps, or just over 3800 watts per hour. Charges a Chevy Volt from zero to full in 4.5 hours. This adds approximately 1000 additional watts per hour over a standard 12 amp volt (120/240v) charger. A big plus is the longer cord and the included standard outlet adapter. Also, I appreciate the fact that it's made in Mexico and not China. If you want it made in the USA, Clipper Creek is your top brand (as well as a great charger). I've spent…

I have an electric car but I can only charge it with the 120V charger that comes with it because I rent out my house and I dress I can in the garage do not install a 240v outlet to use a faster charger. I wanted to buy a second 120v charger to keep in the car just in case I'm visiting a friend or traveling and need to charge the car from a regular outlet. But even most 120v chargers are expensive and many come from companies I've never heard of before, so I'm worried they could start a fire…

There's a reason it's a great value EV charger. The most important thing to note is the 16A part of the specification. This means you can charge at a maximum rate of 1.92kWh on 120V and 3.84kWh on 240V. Since we have the Rav4 SE, the vehicle's maximum allowable charge rate is 3.3kWh. This means that this EV charger is a win-win for us - it can charge our RAV4 at top speed when connected to 240V and is quite inexpensive. A few notes. I had to buy a Nema 14-50P to Nema 6-20P adapter to plug it…
