J1772 Holder for outdoors

[LeftieBiker]

I decided against one of the plastic 'dock type' holders because they don't lock to the handle. That, combined with the 90 degree angle (straight out from the wall) means a significant risk of the plug falling and, in my case, hitting concrete. I'm sticking with the hooks until I come up with something better.

Looks like these ones lock and are angled down. Hell, they even have slots for every single pin.

I was shown a photo of one installed and it appeared to be at 90 degrees. I was also told it doesn't engage the locking pin. It wouldn't be all that hard to make an angled mounting block for one, but I wanted it to lock to the plug.

I just ordered one as well! I can't make that thing for $38!

Yeah, I thought it was a good price. Especially pairing it with an $800 EVSE. That's the real gouging. Haha. I ordered mine Friday.

Hmm... Well, I'll do a little review as soon as I get mine. It shipped this morning.

I bought one of the hooded ones from http://erroneus.myevblog.com/buy-plastic-parts-here/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; and I'm quite happy with it. Need to add a picture of my setup to the "Show us you EVSE" thread...

Can get one of these from Clipper Creek:

It faces sideways...

So far I'm satisfied with the one from the Ebay EV equipment dealer. It's a little "loose" fitting, but the ridge that engages the plug catch is quite substantial.
