I just bought https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07TKVJ389 ; I was sold after watching the totally insane video (on the video attached to part of the product's amazon profile) of someone in bare hands plugging it into a car and an outlet then holding it under water (for only a couple seconds). Any company willing to possibly kill a hand model is a company that gets my business! Hopefully they used the engineer who designed the enclosure.
I made a little stand to keep it propped up and out of the dirt and a little out of the weather. I've decided to just leave it plugged into the NEMA 6-20 plug that's already there, on the presumption that if I'm not plugging / unplugging constantly (as I have been doing with the mobile charger that came with the car) the plug will be up to the task.
As of now, it's been charging for about 3 hours and the plug isn't warm at all and the charger box itself is warm to the touch but not obviously so. The internal temperature sensor is reporting:
So far so good. Outside air temperature is about 65 degrees freedom...
I'm not happy that this thing is within 5 feet of where the natural gas meter is for my house but it'll probably be okay.
