Pros & Cons
Pros
It’s well made and came securely packed. Fit and finish are very nice, compared to other brands we checked out before deciding on the autel. It has a rubberized finish which i'm hoping doesn't turn into goop.

It looks so cool i was scared of taking it out of the box.
For a 30a or lower amp circuit i needed to limit the charger output respectively, which can be done either in the autel charger... Read More
The number one reason i bought the autel maxicharger was its ability to lock/unlock using an rfid card.
Competitiveness
This charger is so much faster at charging than our 110v charger.
Of course, it helped that i already had the correct 220v nema 14-50 outlet installed in the garage.
Establishment was extremely basic, and i had the option to do it without anyone else's help without expecting to bring in an el... Read More
