Works perfectly at just the right power draw, so I don't have to worry about flipping my dryer breaker. Charges my Pacifica Hybrid in under 2 hours from <1%. Nice thick cables seem very sturdy. Plugs in super easily and has a good length of cord.

5 hours to full charge! Heck YEAH!
I bought a very used 2022 Toyota RAV4 Prime, semi-skepitically after my Toyota Highlander gave its life for me in a high speed freeway crash, and I figured I ought to try to be more environmentally conscious. Because I am a very thrifty person, I used the OEM 110volt household current charger for a while. Not very thrilled with it taking 12 hours to recharge so I could have 42 EV miles the next day…”MEH..” says me.
From reviews I really couldn’t tell if the EVDANCE NEMA 14-30 charger would measurably improve my charge times or not. As an ICU RN I work 12 hour shifts and between commute and feeding all my canine and livestock family and self plus shower, food prep, etc, I’m lucky to have 8 hours at home when a vehicle could be charging. Enter the EVDANCE 24amp charger. My older home has NEMA 14-30 outlets in house, garage and shop. I wasn’t sure it would be worth it to spend $200-300 for a charger if it didn’t get me charged up in 6 hours or less. I know that 40 amp chargers get the Prime fully charged in about 4 hours, but what can a 24 amp charger do? I sure am not ready to fork out $3k for electrician and new NEMA 14-50 outlets/circuit breaker/box…I mentioned I’m cheap, right?
Well, the GREAT news is that the EVDANCE charges up my RAV4 Prime from depletion (20% per Toyota algorithm) to full charge in 5 HOURS !! Yay for me! That beats the heck out of as 12 hours using standard 110v household outlet. I hope this review helps someone make the decision to buy this charger. An unexpected bonus is an adapter that lets you use this baby as a 110v charger if you find yourself without a NEMA 14-30 dryer outlet. Only used once so far so I cannot attest to durability. I live in the severe testing grounds of the Pacific NorthWETS, so I will update as needed. Happy as a clam so far!!

Well Made. Complete.
Exactly what I expected, actually a little more than I expected. It's a solid versatile EV Charging kit. And with a J-adapter it fits my Telsa just fine. The main charging unit has a convenient display (nice to see at a glance - but honestly not necessary since I have the same status inside my car display and in the app). Also comes in a convenient carrying case - for those who need this while traveling.
