Proud of myself: my new OpenEVSE installation (slrpnk.net)

Background story: had an OpenEVSE since 2021. But it was hidden in the crawl space under the house since then. No attached cable, it was a Type 2 socket installation.

Recently got an issue with the aforementioned female Type 2 socket (no more ground, faulty lines, etc…) so I decided to move everything back into the sunshine.

That’s not the prettiest installation, but it’s working and the attached cable makes it way easier to use.

Next step would be to move it inside an old gas pump for decoration and laughs!

Nice! I'm planning on doing the same thing but they don't seem to sell the kit with a Type 2 cable, where did you buy it?

AliExpress https://fr.aliexpress.com/item/1005008729849918.html

It's also apparently available at Amazon DE https://www.amazon.de/-/en/Charging-3-Phase-Wallbox-Station-Replacement-11-kW-16/dp/B0DB5XX6K3

Sorry I couldn't find it on an independent respectful online store
