HOMCOM 10m Type 2 EV Charger 2.8kW, 6-13A - Black C20-115V70BK is a portable Type 2 tethered charger with a 10 m IP65 TPU lead, adjustable 6–13 A (1.3–2.8 kW) output and a built‑in ST MCU plus LCD for live voltage, current and power readouts. Its rugged construction tolerates −30°C to +50°C, 70,000+ cable bends and 2‑ton runovers, and includes comprehensive protections and PICC backing. FastDaddyshop consultants recommend it as a dependable overnight or visitor charger where a dedicated 7 kW wallbox isn’t available, but advise using a new RCD‑protected socket for frequent use.
The HOMCOM 10 m Type 2 EV charger (C20-115V70BK) is a compact, portable Type 2 charging cable designed for slow overnight charging and occasional use away from a dedicated wallbox. Based on the experience of FastDaddyshop store managers, this 2.8 kW, 13 A-rated tethered charger is best suited to owners of plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) and small battery electric vehicles who need a reliable, long-reach lead rather than high-speed charging. Our consultants often recommend it where a permanent 7 kW+ home wallbox is not available, or as a practical second charger for visitors.
Key practical points: the control box measures 23 x 9.5 x 5.5 cm and the cable runs 10 m, giving generous reach for driveway or street-side parking. The unit operates between -30°C and +50°C, tolerates over 70,000 cable bends and 10,000+ plug cycles, and is IP65 rated for outdoor use. From the practical experience of our consultants, the adjustable current settings (6 A, 8 A, 10 A, 13 A) and the 1–12 hour delay timer make it straightforward to shift charging into off-peak tariffs, helping reduce running costs.
Comparison and caution: if you need substantially faster charging (to fully recharge a larger battery in a few hours) a dedicated 7 kW or 11 kW wallbox is preferable. In practice, however, the HOMCOM lead is more portable and lower cost, and supports “ground-free” mode for temporary outlets — although based on observations from our consultants we advise using a new, dedicated wall socket and RCD-protected circuit when charging frequently. Avoid using extension leads and consult a qualified electrician if unsure about socket condition or earthing.
