SHOCKFLO G1 PORTABLE LEVEL 2 EV CHARGER REVIEW

EV Channels Review

The Shockflo G1 Level 2 Portable EV Charger is presented as a compelling option for EV owners, particularly those with sensitive vehicles like the Jeep 4xe. The reviewer highlights its user-friendly interface with an informative display showing charging status, temperature, and power output, which is a significant advantage over simpler chargers. The unit's portability is emphasized, though the reliance on a NEMA 14-50 outlet for this feature is noted as a practical limitation, as these outlets are not as commonly found in public or hotel settings as standard plugs. Despite the thinner cables compared to some competitors, the Shockflo G1 is praised for its flawless performance with the temperamental Jeep 4xe, which is prone to errors with less stable chargers. The reviewer commends its robust safety features, including overcurrent, overheat, and voltage protection, and its IP67 waterproof rating. The affordable price point is also a major selling point. Overall, the Shockflo G1 receives a strong recommendation for its reliability, features, and value, with the caveat that finding a NEMA 14-50 outlet for portable use can be challenging.
