> 24 hourThis is a great, easy to install and bomb-proof UL-listed charger. Dont get sucked into thinking you need a smart charger with wifi connectivity and a bunch of bells ans whistles that your EV will already do for you. Just buy this charger and you will not regret it. Next, with all of the $ you saved getting this one, head over to your big box hardware store and buy a cheap, wall-mountable hose holder to hold that beefy power cable in a better orientation than the holder that comes with it.

> 24 hourVery basic, but excellent. Don’t need a smart charger since the car handles most aspects of that. When our electrician first installed the Nema plug, the grizzle didn’t work. Called tech support, who said the blinking light indicated there was a short in the circuitry, which my electrician initially denied. Sure enough…for not being smart, it told us all we needed to know. We’ve had it now for 7 months and love it

> 24 hourExcellent quality. Now I know ehy the company is named Grizzly... this device svreams hesvy duty from its sppearsnce to to monster thick cord which is manageable but just a lityle challenging yo wrestle with when trying to straighten it :-). this is installed on a 14-50 nema Outlet I have installed on my garage wall with a dedicated 50 amp breaker in the circuit breaker box. since my break a box automatically only uses 80% of capacity I didnt have to click any dip switches that are located on the inside. Charging,: my Ford Escape plugin hyybrid vehicle normally charges on My Level 1 charger and takes somewhere around 10 hours to charge fully overnight.... this unit charge it in about 3 hours! Negative: one annoyance: unit came with one of the x screws stripped. there are four hex screws on the front of the unit one of them was already stripped on arrival... which means this unit was damaged before receiving it... somebody overtotqued the screw in place or this was a return from someone else and I rnded up with it.... thats nit good and shows lack of quality control when pscking the item for sale ( probably repacked) Re: photo I posted an image I took of the unit while it was plugged in and charging you can see theres a light on the front of the box thats green. Im assuming the green light simply means its powered because I dont remember seeing it the light change or not at their fully charged. also note if you mount this on the wall be very careful where you mount it because the plug from the unit itself to the end of the plug that plugs into the wall is very short and very thick and not all that pliable... which means you need to position where its mounted making sure you can plug it into the wall from where its mounted. Portability: I have seen wording in description of the unit that it is portable. this thing is relatively heavy I think about 20 lb. portable probably means you can remove it from the wall where it is and place it on the wall somewhere else and move it back and forth if you need to... Im not sure I can imagine taking this on the road with me to plug in at a charging station... it would be awkward you would plug it in the box would hang with its weight on it on the cord itself thats plugged in and then youd have to run the awkwardly thick cable to the car. just my opinion.... but in a pinch I suppose you could do this.

> 24 hourI’ve had this charger for almost a year now and I’m very happy with it. I don’t have a garage and wanted a charger that would perform well in all kinds of weather- especially the cold winter months. This one hasn’t let me down!

> 24 hourHave had this in service in our garage since October 2022, zero problems. Only quibble is that the screw mounting holes for the car-plug holder are awkwardly positioned, making installation of that element difficult. But mounting of the charger unit itself went very smoothly, and seems quite solid. It was charging our car within a couple of hours of delivery, and no glitches since.

> 24 hourBefore buying the Grizzl-E charger, I researched the heck out of it because of it being so inexpensive. The simple reason is that it doesnt have all the, Smart features that many of the others have. Since my car has all the information on the screen and in the app, it wasnt necessary to have it displayed on the device. I had the charger installed by a licensed electrician using the Nema 14-50 plug with a dedicated 50 amp circuit and it works perfectly. I set the schedule up in the car and sure-enough, charging started right on-time and completed in 2 hrs. using the 40 amp setting. The case is strong and the wire is thick, but pliable. The plug holster is disappointing. Although it holds the wire, the lip isnt high enough to firmly hold the wire in place. No big deal though.. I replaced it with a small garden hose holder and that works beautifully. Overall, I am pleased with this purchase and appreciate the lower cost and 3 year warranty.
