Pedestal for outdoor wall charger installation

[kpedraja]

Getting a Model Y to go with our Model 3 and I’m looking to move our Tesla Wall charger from our garage to an outdoor location closer to the street. (long story) There are a number of metal (aluminum or steel) EV charger pedestals on Amazon but none of them really show how connections work, especially where the power line goes (internal or external). Anyone purchased one these and have a recommendation?

I haven't used either of these....

https://www.amazon.com/eMACROS-Connector-Pedestal-Mounted-Charging/dp/B0B8VMRRCB clearly is hollow and the faceplates on the way up come off. Looking at the user install guide, there's a hole in the pedestal at the bottom-rear, so you need to have a conduit connection there. There is no hole in the bottom plate, so unless you cut one yourself you need to use the conduit connection at the rear.

https://www.amazon.com/Tocretoare-Connector-Pedestal-Charging-Electric/dp/B0C495Q8ZP seems largely the same. You can see a grommet in the faceplate where the rear-entry connection of the HPWC would be used, although there's clearly also a hole at the bottom-rear of the pedestal for a conduit connection.
