As mentioned on a few threads, I've been using a 'temporary' 16A connection + UMC to charge my M3 for almost a year now. This has primarily been because of some building works which were expected to start, then did start, then got stopped by Covid and are now nearing completion.

As this slowly winds to completion, my proper charger (Andersen A2) has been installed and I'm wondering what to do with the temporary one. The obvious answer is just pull it out and be done with it, but now I'm wondering if I should keep a 16A commando in case of problems with the main charger? Or to use for a second EV (eventually) or guests (a hahahaha :( )?

The supply for the commando exits the house at a point it would be pretty good to have an outdoor socket, so one thing I was considering was having a comando +waterproof 13A socket put in, but I can't find any such device. Does such a thing exist? Should I just get a double 13A like normal people? I can't think of anything other than the UMC or a second car that I actually need it for...

Cheers!
