Rexing - J1772 Extension Charging Cable - 32A 17ft - Black

Fast shipping , this Ev Charger works excellent with no issue .

Misleading information from BestBuy. This cable is not 20 feet long as advertised. It is 17 feet. The Rexing website states it is 17 feet long as does the box it came in. The entire reason to buy this extension is for added cable length. Length actually does matter this time.

This is an extension cable for EVs equipped with a J1772 charging port. I used it with the Rexing 32 Amp mobile charger on my F-150 Lightning Platinum and it worked as expected. I didn’t see any drop in charge speed or any negative effects at all when using the extension cable. There’s a lot of use cases for this extension: - If you have more than 1 EV in your garage but only 1 charger. You can charge both without physically moving the vehicles. - Some Level 2 Chargers don’t have long enough cords as they weren’t built with large EVs like an F-150 in mind. - Need to use a Level 1 outlet attached to a building and don’t have a 120v extension cord handy. - ICE vehicle (internal combustion engine) is parked in the EV charger spot The last one is probably the most useful for me as you would not believe how many drivers of ICE vehicles will simply ignore the signs that say EV parking only and block a spot when you desperately need a charge. The only downside I can think of is and I admit it’s minor is there’s not a way to lock the extension cable in place so if someone likes it, they can easily take it. Note you cannot use it at Level 3 DC Fast chargers but as far as I know there are NO extension cables available for Level 3 due to the cooling requirements of the cables needed to transfer that much energy that fast. So don’t buy this (or anything) if you were thinking you could use it at fast chargers. Pros: 17ft Extension Up to 32 Amps. IP55 Waterproof Handy when you need it Thick Heavy Duty Cable Cons: No lock Overall – very useful and works great. Will stay in my frunk and gives me peace of mind if I need a little bit more cable while traveling.

A lot of people have electric vehicles now. I currently own one and have intentions of buying another. With friends and family coming over and wanting to charge or just to top off their own electric vehicles, it was becoming a pain to keep moving the cars so that they could use my charger at home. With this extension cable, I no longer need to do that. With the length of this extension cable, I can reach any part of my driveway. Very cool. The cable feels solid and give me confidence that not only will it weather the elements but also last a long time. The connectors on both ends are solid and fits perfectly, no play on either side. We actually got a lot of rain one morning which made me curious about how waterproof the connector actually was, when I went to check the connector port and the connector, not a drop of water was inside of it. This is even though it was laying on the ground. With a rated 40 amp load, this cable handles charging my vehicle at 32 amps without a problem. I didn't see any loss in charge time with the extension cable. It also comes with a convenient carrying case. I plan on taking this with my Rexing Tesla to J1772 adapter when visiting friends so I can top off my vehicle. Another note, I really like Rexing products because of the quality to value of their items. This is another winner by Rexing.

I definitely see this as a must have in every EV vehicle. Some people are so rude they park their cars and trucks blocking the EV charger. So, its great to have an extension cable when all you need is a quick fill and go. Twenty foot long, the plug is solid to the touch. The rubber boot keeps debris out of the delicate contacts. I might add a slathering of dielectric grease to insure no water gets into the copper and corrodes it. (rain and snow protection) The receptacle end has an easy thumb activator to pop open the cover exposing the receptacle. This too will keep the water , snow and dirt out of the connector. The SO cable is thinner because the expected voltage running in it is between 450 and 750 VAC. Its made of three (3) conductor 6.0mm stranded wire. The cable itself seems resiliant, but I wouldn run it across the concrete too often. I did do a little research into the idea of using any type of extension cabling on certain chargers. Like most electrical devices, there is a functional limit to their usefulness. Some chargers specifically state not to use any type of extension cord, so look into this on your own and verify if the one you have at home or use on the road supports adding extension cords to them. Still a great option in my opinion.
