Now that it is the off season I was thinking of upgrading a beach rental property with destination charging. As it is beachfront, are there any best practices, issues or recommendations? I want to make it as easy as possible for the renter while at the same time providing a level of protection to the wand/charge station against sand/salt spray. The obvious answer is "in the garage" however the house is on stilts: open underneath for parking with a middle stair/mudroom/storage. A built in/on "charge closet" (~2'x2'x7') is my best idea so far should I go the home charger route.
Alternatively an external 14-50R RV/HotTub connection in a 2'x2'x2' may be the way to go. This way the installer never sees the words TESLA or EV and it is a BYOC for the renter... (But I really like the convience of just plugging in with my home charger.)
Has anyone tried this? If so how did the charging wand hold up (for a Tesla home charger)?
