This does the job perfectly. It’s easy to install and does seem weatherproof. Screw the base to the wall and snap the face on. It holds the charger securely, with a simple thumb-operated lever to release it.
There’s nothing sophisticated about this holder but it seems well made and does its job well.
This Type 2 EV Charging Cable Holder is honestly a lifesaver. Had an Ohme home charger installed but the standard on broke (snapped the top bit) so my charging cable was like a rebellious teenager — always lying around, tangled up, and tripping me every time I walked by.
But now, this holder keeps it neatly in place and looking tidy. It’s weatherproof too, so I don’t have to worry about it falling apart when it rains (which is basically all the time in the UK). Installation was a breeze, and it fits my cable perfectly.
I never thought I’d be this excited about a cable holder, but here we are. If you’re tired of wrangling your charger like a wild hose, this is for you!
This Type 2 EV charging cable holder provides a practical and durable solution for organizing and protecting your charging cable. The holder’s robust construction ensures longevity, while its weatherproof design safeguards the cable from the elements.
Installation is straightforward, and the holder securely accommodates various EV charging cables, including Tesla, BMW, and VW models. The cable slides in and out with ease, ensuring convenient access.
While the included screws may require adjustment for certain installation surfaces, the overall quality of the holder is commendable. It effectively prevents the cable from becoming a tripping hazard or accumulating dirt, contributing to a tidy and organized charging environment.
For EV owners seeking a reliable and efficient way to manage their charging cables, this holder is highly recommended. It offers a practical and durable solution that enhances both organization and cable protection.
This holder is good quality hard plastic with no sharp edges.
It is supplied in 2 pieces, a back plate that you screw to the wall, and a from piece which simply snaps over the backplate once it has been fixed to the wall.
Ths replaces my original holder which bizarrely jas the charger plug at 90 degrees to the wall, unnecessarily protruding across my narrow pathway and easily caught when walking past. The plug just slots into the holder as a friction push fit with nothing retaining it, which consequently means that when knocked when navigating past it on my narrow path it falls out, dropping to the floor. I am concerned that over time this will cause damage to the plun and/or electrical integrity.
This new holder not only retains the plug securely with a thumb catch, thus preventing it from falling out, but it is angled which means the plug is pointing downward, which is not only neater in appearance bus is now less of an obstacle to shuffle around as there is less protrusion.
Once fitted it certainly looks good quality and robust, additionally, the lip at the top facilitates hanging the cable neatly instead of lying as a trip hazard on the floor.
13.99 at the time of my review which I consider represents decent value.
The unit comes with rawl plugs, screws and instructions and is fairly easy to fix to any brick surface as it comes in two parts.
Holds any type 2 charger easily.
There doesn’t appear to be any drain holes in the bottom of the plastic unit so I am slightly concerned the back piece may fill up with water if left in an exposed position, but could easily be rectified by drilling a small draining hole in the bottom.
I bought this Type 2 EV charging cable holder because I was getting fed up with my charging cable lying around and looking untidy. I wanted something that would keep it off the ground and out of the elements, and this seemed like the perfect solution.
The first thing I noticed when I unpacked it was the solid build quality. The holder feels sturdy and well-made, and it’s clear that it’s designed to withstand the outdoors. Installing it was straightforward—I had it mounted on my garage wall in about 15 minutes. It holds the cable securely, and I no longer have to worry about it being a tripping hazard or getting dirty.
The weatherproof design is a big plus. We’ve had some heavy rain recently, and the holder has kept my charging cable dry and clean. It’s also large enough to accommodate the bulky connectors that come with these EV cables, so there’s no need to force anything into place.
It’s compatible with my Tesla cable, and from what I can tell, it should work just as well with other brands like BMW and VW. The fit is snug but not too tight, so the cable slides in and out easily without any hassle. This holder does an excellent job of keeping everything organised and looking tidy, which is exactly what I was after.
One thing to note is that while the holder is robust, the screws provided could be a bit longer. I swapped them out for some of my own just to make sure it was securely fastened to the wall. It’s a minor issue, but worth mentioning if you’re looking to install it on something other than a solid wall.
All in all, this cable holder is a great addition to my EV setup. It’s practical, weatherproof, and does exactly what it promises. If you’re tired of your EV charging cable looking like a tangled mess, this holder is definitely worth getting.
This EV charge cable holder was 12.99 at the time of this review. Earlier this year i got a different brand holder which was 10, however this one is definitely superior and worthy of the higher price.
The QIAO holder comes in two pieces. You screw one to the wall, and then clip the front surround onto it. A word of advice, don’t do what i did and click them together before attaching the first piece to the wall, as they are a really snug click fit and it was a real hassle to separate them again (which you have to do to screw it to the wall…) Rest assured, once in place on the wall this won’t be coming apart in a hurry.
The holder holds the type-2 (EV standard) cable head with a simple push of the cable head into the socket. To release it again when you want to charge your vehicle there is a small spring-loaded tab to move vertically. This is a good idea and prevents the cable head falling out in a strong wind, or if knocked as someone walks past etc.
Any slack cable can coil over the top to keep things tidy.
Although it is a good thing that the pieces don’t come apart easily, i would have preferred there to be a small notch (underneath away from water ingress) to help with separating the pieces when needed, but this is a minor complaint, and not one that would impact day-to-day use of this item.
Does what it says on the tin!
Holds my charger cable securely with the added clip that others don’t offer.
Keeps it tidied away and secured.
Very easy to install, quite sturdy and exactly what I expected.
