About this deal

Electric vehicles have many benefits, including their environmental friendliness and energy efficiency. One of the concerns that many people have when it comes to charging their electric vehicles (EVs) is whether the chargers can withstand exposure to wet conditions. Here, we will dispel any myths and explain why you can charge your EV in the rain without any problems.

For others, however, whose garage either didn’t permit charging or for where there is no garage space, need to use outdoor charging solutions. The problem of rain and charging emerges and is genuinely concerning. We are so well trained to keep all things electrical far away and separate from water, that the idea of plugging something in while it’s raining out is enough to give us anxiety. These port covers are arguably the simplest solution to weatherproofing concerns. Assuming you have a charger that is outdoor rated and hard-wired, then the only other areas to protect are the port and the connector (see below for connector). To construct something larger around the charging port is impractical, so these smaller more contained solutions are very neat.

These are simply made from synthetic cloth materials, which while durable and waterproof do not offer much of a solution to the more serious wintry problems that we described above. This is why those facing heavy snow and ice would more likely go for the full port cover idea. To ensure safety, electric car chargers must meet safety standards set by the National Electrical Code (NEC) and Underwriters Laboratory (UL). All JuiceBox charging stations meet the safety requirements of NEC Article 625 and UL 2594, and they also meet NEMA-4 standards. This includes a gasketed door enclosure for indoor or outdoor use, which provides a degree of protection against windblown dust and rain, splashing water, hose-directed water, and ice that forms on the enclosure. WATERPROOF FABRIC】Made from waterproof high-grade canvas, and not from thin fabric that will tear after a few wind gusts, this outdoor electric car charger rain cover will remain in excellent condition for a long period

When electric cars started to become more prominent, one of the most urgent and burning questions in many people’s minds was what to do about charging when it was raining outside. Some owners had their home charging infrastructure installed inside of their garage, and therefore had much less to worry about. The car was always going to be charged inside while at home, so there’s no fear there. We can also manufacture covers for; parking metres, pay machines, traffic lights and bespoke machinery.

FITS YOUR WALLBOX – Perfect for almost all common charging stations: Absina, Astoneves, Boostech, Easee, go-e, Green, Heidelberg, Juice, Morec, Pulsar, Tesla, VW ID and many more! Simply measure your wallbox and choose the right size Since many connectors are criticized for being made of very cheap plastics, the addition of such protection should be a welcome addition. Do you really need it, though? That’s the question. The simple answer is no. You don’t really need it because as long as you store the connector as recommended by the manufacturer of the charging station, you shouldn’t encounter any problems. It’s also important to choose a suitable cable length. Calculate the distance from your home charging unit or from the usual charging point that you use and then add a little extra room for secure charging. Don’t use the cable excessively stretched to charge your electric car.
