When I had an electrician install a compatible 240V power outlet to use my new 6-50A charger cable, I fully charged my discharged plug-in hybrid in 39% of the time it took when charged on a 120V charger. I've used the new charger cable twice and absolutely happy with it. The only nitpick I have is with the cable anchor which could have been wider to hold a 50' long cable when stored.
Gerald S.
It was great that it comes with a choice of different pigtails for any type of 240 V AC socket. Saves having to have an electrician come up to change out the socket or add an additional one.

I had needed the charger on a Saturday, so I chose the high cost Saturday delivery and then they shipped it via USPS ignoring my request because they thought I'd get it by Saturday. They did the right thing and refunded me the shipping cost since it did not arrive on time, but that was a bad taste in my mouth.
Additionally, I would highly suggest they have a professional editor review their documents that are included as they're not grammatically correct, and I think there's some glaring word issues.
At the end of the day, the charger does work, and I've used it many times now. I do wish the cord didn't have to be so thick as my door cannot close (I ordered the 50' because I can't use my garage in the winter), but I suppose that's the nature of science.

Easy to use. A mounting bracket would be useful.

We recently installed a 220v outlet in a single car for our tenant. She had been charging her 2026 BMW i3 with the regular Level 1 outlet in the garage. Took forever snd she only has about 80 miles of battery range. So a phone call and a texted photo with David helped us choose the right upgraded EVSE for car. We plugged it in and looped the small amount of extra cable (30â length) on a wall hook. She came home, plugged the new Level 3 equipment into her car and sent us this text: â OMG. Itâs perfect! Thank you!!!!!â
Happy tenant and happy landlord.

Plug and play, it's that easy. It charges 50% of my Jaguar I Pace in 11 hours, so it is perfect for charging every night. We read some reviews saying that the connector was too tight, but ours works smooth and without requiring any force at all. We got the shortest cable and it is still too long for our garage, specially since it is not recommended to keep it rolled while charging to avoid heat. It would be great if there were interchangeable sizes on the car's end, so that could be customized like it is done on the other end. We were about to spend 10x on an upgraded electricity intallation for a faster and more expensice charger, but this is exactly what we needed, making use of an existing dryer outlet.

I had a few questions which the company answered almost immediately and then they called to double check! The charger arrived the day after ordering. Great customer service and our e-Golf charges so much faster now.
Paul B.
Works as stated, and one of the few I could find with an L6-30 plug. Charges up my Volt quickly and easily.

Initially had issue with Level 2 EV Charger 16 Amp 30ft 10-30P, but was swiftly resolve with David and he sent me a replacement L6-30P connector and it Worked flawlessly with my 2021 RAV4 PRIME. Would highly recommend this product and the Customer support! *****

This L2 charger is much faster than the L1 included with our car and works well. The 50 foot length is able to reach to our driveway from the existing drier plug so it was a plug and play option for charging. I like the display on the unit so that I can check the state of charge without going out to the car. I appreciate the included hanger and wall holder. Overall very pleased with the charger.
John D.
Arrived swiftly and charged my '17 Prius in 1hr - 50min. Excellent!

Worked with Dave and the charger arrived in one day , plugged it into an existing plug and it charged my 2018 prius prime in 1 hr 50 minutes instead of the normal 6 to 6.5 hours. Nice!. Excellent in dealing with Dave and PrimeCom.
Thanks

Very responsive and knowledgeable pre-sale. Quick delivery. I have only been able to use the cable twice due to the BMW recall of their electric cars. It seem to work fine.
Ken F.
Happy with my purchase. The charger came as adverstised. However, what made this purchase great was the level of customer service. I had a plug that was not listed on the available plugs. I sent them a photo of my 6-15 plug and they were able to customize my charger with this plug so that I could use it in my garage. Also, customer service was always available to answer questions. It was nice to see a company still value great customer service!
Lawrence M.
Fast delivery and well packaged. It has all the accessories including two types of US plugs. Just plug it in and it starts the charging right the way, very nice! Its real time charging current showing on the display is very helpful.
Antigoni K.
It works!!! We were debating extending a buried electric line to our garage which would have been quite costly. This is an efficient solution. I don't have to park on my grass anymore. Relieved and pleased. Seems to be well made.
Frank T.
A well engineered product. This company clearly understands consumers need some flexibility since they offer many kinds of plus types. Plus I love the fact that even with a 220V outlet they are limiting the current to 16 amps, thereby prolonging the battery but not exposing it to higher current charges. This is perfect for the home charging station.
Jabed F.
Working without any hassle for mini se. Also very fast shipping.

Great quality and works as advertised. The screen is more helpful than I thought it would be.

Great product from a great company. I needed a 50' cord and went with Primecom.tech because they were the only company I could find offering a cord in that length. I lucked out because the cord is a top-notch product and, even better, the service Primecom.tech provides is unbeatable. When I called with a question, the phone was immediately answered by a real person, Tom, who gave me great advice and went out of his way to make sure I got what I needed. He even gave me great tips on saving money on the installation of a 220 circuit.
I highly recommend Primecom.tech to anyone who owns an EV.
Sincerely,

The product itself works fine. But it was delivered with a missing item and itâs impossible to get some help regarding that issue. Weird.

Charger arrived quickly (2 days with free shipping cross-country!) and works as expected. No issues at all so far, charges my Q5e at 230V/14.9A, 0-100% in ~4 hours!

I was very impressed with this charger and the professional staff who assisted me in choosing the right type of plug that fits my electrical outlet!!

Ordered this level 2 charger Nema 14-30 plug to replace a damage charger. Shop around online and on amazon, found several good replacement. Went with Primecom.tech to support a US company versus a foreign company during these economic hardship due to Covid19. Received the charger with a Nema L6-30 plug but with a adapter to convert to Nema 14-30 plug. Look like the order was ship just to full fill the order. The issue with this is. That's not what I ordered. I specifically ordered a charger with Nema 14-30 plug. Didn't ask for anything else. Would have appreciated I was contacted and consented to any modification to my order. Keeping the charger because I need it. The charger work as advertise, and seem to be built well.
Kenneth N.
Delivered quick. Charges quicker! Works as advertised . Seems solid quality. I built a station to hold the cord and plug. Only feature wish it had is the Charge delay button .
John E.
Two weeks in, the charger works as advertised. It doesn't have any fancy features, but it charges our little car quickly enough. The one feature it has is great: you can select which NEMA plug you need.
The converter brick mounted easily to the wall, and I improvised my own wall mount for the plug when not in use. For a budget level 2 charger, I'm quite happy.
Sandy P.
We bought a house and had a Nema 14-50 installed inside the walls. We werenât sure if it would even be useful since we had never used a fast charger for his Leaf before. This charger has been great at charging his car quickly!
David W.
I just love my charger. I needed the extra feet and I was able to get it. What I like the best is the cord is flexible and e-z to handle. This is one time the quality fair out ways the price. I would recommend to my friends.

It works perfectly. Prius Prime used to charge 5 hours and 50 Minutes. Now it charges in 2 hours or 2 hours and 10 minutes. Installing a 220v line was very easy.

I purchased a 2016 Chevy Spark and needed a level 2 charger with the ability to be both level 1 and 2 charger for a regular outlet and a dryer 240 outlet. I spoke to someone at the company who helped guide me on the website to order everything I needed for my needs. It works so well, twice as fast as my factory charger and made much better. I love that this is 30 ft long. All others I looked at were only 20 ft, which would have made it difficult for me to reach my car in the driveway.

I purchased the 240v charger and I could not be happier with it. Built solidly and works as advertised. Price was a little high in my opinion, but I am glad to have it. 2 to 4 hours charging beats 12 hours charging on 110 any day.
Katthy
Saves Money
I was talking to my electrician to put a 220/240 outlet and he suggested that this wire gizmo will allow me to connect outlet behind my dryer to the car. So I purchased 50â cord and it saved me money on hardwiring. It does stick a bit when you try to remove nozzle from my Honda Clarity PHEV.

Great J1772 charger
This charger works great for my Tesla Model 3 (using the J1772 adapter). I purchased the 6-20 NEMA with a 50 foot cord. My car charges at 240v 16a, adding about 14-15 miles per hour.
The 50 foot cord allows me to reach multiple parking spots in my driveway and garage. The cord is much, much longer than the Tesla mobile charger cord. The cord does not get warm during charging â seems to be high quality.
240v 16a isnât the fastest, but itâs more than enough to get a full charge overnight. I like that the power cord has a twist lock so that I could swap plugs if needed.
Great charger overall.

It works for Kia Niro plug-in
This is the cheapest one when you skip for all the bell and whistle for other more expensive model like smart phone monitor, scheduling and etc... Since most of the car has those functions already, it doesn't make sense to buy the charger with those extra thing. This charger is smaller than the one included with the Niro but it does charge 3 times as fast. It took 7h30m to charge the battery from 10% to 100% with the included home charger. It took only 2h30m to charge with this charger.
This charger is small and I can't believe it costs that much for such a small device. Since it's my first day, I hope it doesn't do any bad thing to the battery since it is small compare with other more expensive charger with bigger size.
Maybe for the Niro, since it has only a 9Kw battery, this is enough.
Marck
Charges Fusion in a little over 2 hours
I'm very happy with this charger. I needed a charger compatible with a L6-30 outlet and it was either this or a high-end version available on a third party site that costs nearly double than this one. The only difference between the two was that the more expensive charger came with a mount. I opted to go with this cheaper version and just by a mount separately and saved a ton of money in the process. Despite being cheaper, this charger seems very high quality and charges my Fusion from empty in just a little over two hours. I couldn't be more satisfied.
Trey L
Best value for 240V charger
I ordered the 40ft 10-30P. The extra-long cord meant I didn't have to order an extension cord, which was really nice. The charger works fine and seems to be pretty well built. I can now charge my 2018 Chevy Volt overnight and wake up with a 100% full battery! Can't beat that!

Nice unit with 2 hidden jems
I was going to purchase this unit and an adapter to work in a NEMA 14-50 connector so I would have option to charge at RV parks and hotels with RV outlets across the country. When the unit arrived, I found that the NEMA 6-50P connector is a removable adapter that becomes a NEMA 14-50 connector when removed. The other surprise is that there is a black rain cover included for the connection to keep rain out after disconnecting. So, this unit is compatible with thousands of non-tesla chargers across the country.
ReviewGuy
Works perfectly, excellent company to deal with
I can strongly recommend Primecom and their offering of vehicle chargers. I ordered the Level-2 EV, 14-50P, 30 feet, 16A and although the charger worked perfectly, the length wasn't exactly what I needed for our unique setup at our house. I contacted the seller, Primecom, and the communication with David was immediate and extremely helpful. He informed me they actually had a different charger altogether that would be perfect for our setup and he would have one shipped out to me that same day. Our EV Station is now exactly as we envisioned it, thanks to David and Primecom. I would not hesitate to contact this company to discuss what the right solution is for your setup, they've been extremely helpful the entire process. Very rare these days. Both chargers worked perfectly with our 2018 Chevy Volt, the car charges in 4+ hours instead of 10+. We couldn't be happier.
J. Richardson
Nice to not be on Level 1 any more
I ordered the 30' 14-30P version so I could share my dryer outlet, since I wasn't yet to call an electrician out to add another circuit to my garage.
The company seems to really care about you being happy, and love their approach to offing different lengths of cable by varying the pigtail length.
On the J1772 side it is the standard length to the control box, and the on the 14-30 plug side they have a NEMA L6-30R & P inserted between the 14-30 and the control box, so however long they need to make, they can. I especially like this approach because I have a 14-30 splitter, one connected to my dryer, and one connected to the approx 5' 14-30P>L6-30R, and when I need to use the EVSE, I just connect the L6-30R & P together, and saves me from needing to go behind the dryer and always plugging in the heavier 14-30P.
I've only had it a day, but love this approach, and so glad I can charge faster than my L1.
I haven't found the J1772 connector to bind up or be hard to remove as other reviewers have mentioned, so not sure if this is a newer version, but it connects/disconnects with the same force as any commercial or my stock L1 charger does.
This is a reputable brand, so I'm sure it will last, but have no doubt if I do end up having a problem that Primecom would try to resolve it.

Simple design and charges my PHEV Chrysler Pacifica perfectly, I was looking at the Juicebox product for about $600 but this charger does everything I need for less than half the price.

Worth every penny!
I purchased a Nissan Leaf recently and researched the charging options plenty. This was a great price on a Level 2 charger and an easy way to install it. We found that our Dryer was close to the driveway behind our house and rather then install an entire new line from the fuse box we ran this instead. Now, we just unplug the dryer when we are not using and plug in the car. We were able to run the line through the same hole the dryer vent is going through in our basement and now I have a level 2 charger. I have a full charge every night now, typically, before I even go to sleep it will be done. This is the best price and works as it should. It is a huge difference over the trickle charger.

Good well designed Level 2 Charger
Seems like a very well built Level 2 charging cord. I just got a plug-in hybrid and the level 1 charger that comes with it is both slow (no surprise) and short. I have a unused "welder" 10-30 220 outlet in the garage and found this Level 2 charger with the included proper plug. I bought the 35 ft, for a few dollars more than the 30 for potential future insurance but it also gives me flexibility in parking the car. The cord is very heavy duty and seems correctly rated for the length and power, but still fits under the garage door. This allow me to charge at top speed, 16A, because the onboard charger is rated for 3.8 kW

Works for 2015 Chevy Volt Perfect
I recently moved into a 100 year old with no exterior outlets or a garage. Was in a bind trying to figure out how to charge my 2015 Chevy Volt. This allows me to use the 240v dryer outlet I have inside the house. The cord is long enough to span the distance of my house from the laundry room in the front and make it all the way to back of my driveway. It's worked perfect! Full charge in under 4 hours. No need for an electrician or a fancy charging station. Absolutely worth the cost. I've been using the charger for 3 months every day now completely outside, no cover in rain and snow and have not had any charging issues.

Great Charger!
Everything worked well so far. The charger is 240V / 16A (3.2kW), which is faster than the backup charger I had received with my e-Golf, and of course not as fast as the 32A chargers (like this one, which are twice as fast, but twice as expensive as well.
It came in a neatly packed box (can be seen in the pictures), and I would keep it, since there is a lot of cable, and the box seems to organize it well. The cable is in two pieces (again can be seen in the pictures), I'll touch that in a minute. The final connection is a NEMA 14-50 Plug, which was the one used in my workplace.
I asked for the longer cable, since it allows charging when I cannot park directly next to the outlets. However there is a caveat, the longer cable should not be kept in a spool, but rather should have a random loop. Otherwise that essentially becomes a coil, heating up, and possibly causing a fire hazard. (This is general knowledge when you handle large currents over long cables). However I had issues with heating extension cables before (when I was using the 110V backup charger with a wrong extension cord). So make sure you use the correct length, and any slack is not tuned into a coil.
Overall I was satisfied with the charger and for the given cable length and power level it seem like a good deal

Charges my 2018 Prius Prime in just over 2 hours. Fast charge is EXTREMELY important
Adding a fast charger (240V) seems to be a huge part of hybrid vehicles, and the faster you can charge the better. In my case I went from getting about 700 miles per tank (120V charge) to over 1300 miles per tank (240V). Charging in two hours or less typically means I leave my house on a full charge. And as most of my runs into town are 25 miles or less there isn't any gas used. I just filled up after 21 days and had 1360 miles on the odometer, and the fill-up was 10.3 gallons.
Before this charger I would only have a full charge once per day because it typically took over 6 hours.
Installation is easy, add a 240V circuit breaker and a plug and you're set.

Great Charger at a Great Price!
This was purchased for my grandson's 2012 Chevy Volt. The Level 1 charger worked okay, but kept overheating on the plug, so we decided to get a Level 2 Charger that could be plugged into their dryer 220 plug. It charges in only a few hours compared to the overnight charge of the Level 1 Charger. So far so good. Seams to be made well, we bought the 50 ft. and have plenty of extra cord. Feel much safer using it on a line dedicated to only the 220 Volt (no pun intended), with no other electrical being used on that breaker. The dealership wanted $500 for the same type charger, so Amazon's price was great and even had a $25 off coupon.

Charges my 2018 Prius Prime in just over 2 hours. Fast charge is EXTREMELY important
Adding a fast charger (240V) seems to be a huge part of hybrid vehicles, and the faster you can charge the better. In my case I went from getting about 700 miles per tank (120V charge) to over 1300 miles per tank (240V). Charging in two hours or less typically means I leave my house on a full charge. And as most of my runs into town are 25 miles or less there isn't any gas used. I just filled up after 21 days and had 1360 miles on the odometer, and the fill-up was 10.3 gallons.
Before this charger I would only have a full charge once per day because it typically took over 6 hours.
Installation is easy, add a 240V circuit breaker and a plug and you're set.

High quality and does just what it should
I bought this to plug my Chevy Volt into a 240 my neighbor had installed to charge his Tesla. There is just not a lot to say. It's sturdy and high quality, plugs in and removes easily from both the car and the outlet. The cord is good and long so you have some latitude in how close you need to park to the outlet. Does exactly what you buy it to do.
(Update) On further thought...a month later, and it is working just fine. I realize that getting charging accessories for your EV can be somewhat nerve-wracking--especially for those of us who support the technology, but are not complete EV nerds, and simply want it to work. I am always nervous that the support equipment I buy is built properly and won't cause damage to, or completely ruin, the car or the charge point. This charger has worked perfectly.

Great Level-Two Charger
I did quite a bit of research and spoke with friends and co-workers for advice before buying a level-two charger for my new 2019 Kia Niro EV EX. The PrimeCom charger met all requirements for price, ease of use and reliability. I'm really happy with this charger's quality and durability. I won't hesitate to recommend it to friends, co-workers or family going forward.

A great value
I had a previous large wall charger that had worked for years and suddenly no longer worked and I had paid almost $1000 for it. It required a 30 amp 220v circuit. Most of the new wall mounted ones require at least 40 amps which would mean a large expense to up grade. I found this one that required less than than a 30 amp circuit. This unit is much small and works very well and only takes a few minutes longer than my previous one to fully charge you vehicle. the only issues #1 I ordered it with the 30A plug and it came with a 50A plug so I had to change the receptacle.
#2 sometimes it is difficult to remove the charger from the vehicle.

Custom cord lengths... very handy!
This was one of the most inexpensive chargers available... not fancy, but it gets the job done. I have tried it in both 120v Level 1 mode (with an adapter) and 240v level 2 mode, it seems to work great in both. There is a nice, tight fit in the charging port, and the latch mechanism seems more sturdy than my other charger. The best feature to me, though... is that they offer it in different cord lengths so you can get just the right distance between your outlet and the car without paying for a lot of extra cord or having to park a specific way to make it reach. Nice!

Good no-frills level 2 EVSE for a great price.
This is only an initial review (about a month), so I cannot attest to the durability/reliability of this EVSE. However, thus far it has worked flawlessly. The build quality seems good with thick cabling and a solid interlock to the plug. The rubber dust cover for the charging plug fits well. The charging rate is what I expected based on amperage of this no-frills EVSE.

Great product
Makes charging so much faster. This company is the only one I found that has plugs for all 220 volt sockets.

Worked from day one, installation was trivial.
I chose this particular charger because it had options for the correct plug and an extended length (35'). We had an unused dryer socket in our garage so I selected the plug that would fit. Within ten minutes of getting the charger, I had it plugged into the socket in the garage and charging our car. We now can recharge completely in about 2.5 hours rather than the six or so it takes with the 120 V charger. We still carry the original charger for longer trips where we can grab a few kWh from a motel or gas station but for everyday this charger allows us to always leave the driveway with a full charge. We really like it.

Solid performer, excellent build, fast charging
This charger looks and feels well built, very sturdy, and has a very precise and good connection to the car. I have a Chevy Bolt, and looks like itâs charging at about an average of 16 miles of range per hour. Love it. Great value. Will update this review if it fails to hold up, but so far so good.

Great solution at a great price
I'm very happy with this charger, it has definitely eased my home charging anxiety. Before this purchase it took about 26 hours to fully charge my Leaf. It takes about 8 hours now to put a full charge on the battery. My charging situation is probably a little different than a lot of homes, I'm able to run the 50 foot cord from my car and through my house to the utility closet where the washer and dryer sit. I'm lucky that the 220 outlet sits right above the dryer, so its easy to unplug the dryer and plug in the charger. So I had no extra expenses for adding level-2 charging for this awesome car. The only thing I can't do is dry clothes and charge my car at the same time, I just have to remember to put plastic on my car seat if I'm wearing wet clothes.

Excellent Product. Can Get up to 50 ft Length
I've had my 220 volt charger for almost 2 months now. This is a high quality product. I've had no problems using it from my garage dryer outlet. It is 50 ft long and lets me charge 3X faster than before. I can now charge outside the garage and the price is 3 excellent. For a minimum cost they will supply you with an adapter that goes from your dryer outlet to their charging cable. I highly recommend this product, especially if you need extra length from the outlet to your vehicle. It barely gets warm and seems to pose no threat of fires.

So far it's great
After about 4 months it is still great . Charges our Fusion energi in a little over 2 hours . Very sturdy as we have dropped it a few times and no damage . The cord is heavy duty and the plug fits snug ( love the dust cover ) . At half the price of the name brand and dealer option , this is a great buy . Use it twice a day and really haven't seen a change in the electric bill . As gas goes up this will pay for its self in a year , if not sooner .

Great level II EV charger
After reading discussion groups and Amazon reviews, I was delighted to find this charger. I bought a Kia Niro PHEV recently and was thrilled to discover that I had an unused 220V dryer outlet in my garage. I opted for the 40-foot charger so that I can route it up across my garage ceiling and down to where my vehicle sits. Since it is a 16Amp only, it take ~2 1/2 hours to charge up my 26 mile capacity battery, which is sufficient for my needs. I am very pleased with this item.

50â Product works perfectly for 2019 Chevy Volt with EXCELLENT customer service to back it up!!
I ordered the 50â length in hopes I could plug into my dryer outlet and not have to hardwire in a house I may not be in more than a year. Everything came as promised except that I was a doofus and mistakenly ordered wrong plug style. Fortunately the seller was AWESOME and sent me the correct plug style right away, no charge, and only asked I return the wrong one to them.
When I received the right plug, I plugged it in to my 2019 Chevy Volt and everything appeared to be working great! But what was astounding is that it overdelivers and is EASILY 4X FASTER than the regular charger my car came with. I havenât timed it, but can go from empty to a full charge in right about 3 hours, and that is FANTASTSTIC. Voltage is stable, no breaker issues, and a super long cord to make it around my house into my driveway. THis turned out PERFECT!! Thanks guys!

Really speeds up charging.
I recently purchased a Chrysler Pacifica Plug in hybrid. It came with a 120V charging cable that works fine but takes 14 hours to charge. This new 220v charging cable charges in less than 3 hours. And for much less than a factory installed charging station
