I've got an EV Charge King Cable, not tried it with the standard one yet (because I keep forgetting, although I will do now as it seems to have gotten worse) but very often when plugging the cable in to my car, it makes a slight crackling sound, it reminds me very much of when you plug a 3 pin plug into an old style PC monitor, you nearly always get that crackle.
The weird thing is.....the charger isn't set to discharge power, so it shouldn't be getting anything to short it at that stage and also, I thought the whole idea of the plug/socket was to not allow that to happen?
Its never been particularly bad, except today when I purposely did it slowly and tried to record it on my phone ( and failed) but I didn't realise at the time it had actually tripped the breaker on my EO Charge Mini. I just had to flick it back on because I noticed the car didn't start charging at half 12 when it should have.
Anyone else had this behaviour? I'm wondering who the prime suspect is...obviously I can work my way through using process of elimination but these things take time...and kind of rely on me to remember lol
