Very good lead
Bought as an emergency cable due to home charger 3 weeks away and has done a very good job but is only a small car so it is perfect for us but have heard of others with bigger cars who also said it was good so no problems

Type 2 plug
The plug is the best thing I have bought for a long time. It's plugged in on timer in the garage and comes on between 12 and 5 am, on EDF evening tarrif it's really cheap to run, I would recommend this particular type 2 plug because of the options of 3 amp settings, it also as a timer on it. A good price from Argos.

Now I Can charge anywhere!!
This has been a lifesaver. It is so compact I’m able to take it with me wherever I go and charge on the go without having to worry about finding a charging point. It’s easy to use and easier to put away and carry with me. The cord is long so it’s great as I don’t have an outside plug so I’m able to charge on the street. It’s not as bulky as I thought it would be either which helps massively for storing it. It’s a quicker charge than I thought and the screen is well lit and provides key information. Definitely would recommend especially if you go on journeys to other towns where you’re unsure about charging points!

Good accessory
Nice sturdy storage bag with Velcro on the back to prevent sliding in the boot. 1 button to change between the 3 settings available (3A, 10A and 13A), the selected will be illuminated green and there is a green strip light to indicate charging. Nice feel and build quality, this is an excellent accessory to have for use when travelling or when no public charging point available, would recommend!

Love knowing how much juice I've used
I've used this to charge my Leaf using the 10amp option. It shows how much electricity you use, in kilowatts, so if it's someone else's socket you can offer them the correct money. The cable seems very sturdy and it's waterproof. The case is handy as it keeps the cable tidy in the boot.

Portable electric car charger
Well tbh I was I little bit sceptical about this to start with BUT wow its actually an amazing bit if kit. Never needed it at home but when I visited family its was just perfect. No need to find a charging port at a supermarket and leave my car for hours as I could just plug in at my family's. Really well packaged with a nice carry case also it's a nice size and not bulky. Honestly would recommend this to anyone as its just perfect especially when your away from home

Great if a 3 pin socket is only thing available
This charge cable comes with a nice zip carry case with internal Velcro straps to keep secure and organised. The display screen is easy to read & you can set the Max output to either 3A, 10A or 13A using the mode button which is then highlighted green (this cannot be changed once plugged into the vehicle). I found it easier to set Max output to 13A & then this allowed me to change it to any of the settings using the car app. The green strip on the module rises as the charge is working, which is a nice touch. For the actual charging, this is very slow (17% to 90% in around 19 hours) compared to a normal home electric point charger (17% to 90% in around 9.5 hours). This is all to do with the output available though & for me, if you don’t have the option of home electric charger (say you live in a terraced house) or if you go somewhere on holiday and there isn’t a charging point available, this then gives you the simple option of plugging into a normal socket and still being able to charge your car! Build quality seems very good & the 5m cable is ample. Well worth having as a secondary option in my opinion, however I wouldn’t want to use it as the main charger unless absolutely necessary.

Rapid charging
With a three charging settings it has proved to be an ideal extra for our electric car. It comes in a very handy (and stylish) case which was a pleasant surprise and made excellent storage. More importantly it was really easy to use. Easy connection. Rapid charging. 3-pin plug with a cable that is long enough for us to use. For us it takes approx. 2.5 hours to fully charge the car for its 30 mile range.

Great home ev charger
I've been using this to charge a bmw i3. Charges faster than the official lead. You can change the amps on the lead to ensure power is correct for your vehicle. Charging display is clear and easy to use. There is an overheating safety cut out to avoid damage. Lightweight and case has velcro to stick in your boot. Handy for overnight charging or a quick top up at a normal plug.
