I am looking for a durable, weather resistant EV home charging point cover, does anyone know a reliable brand to get one from? Don’t want anything fancy just something to protect my Pod Point Solo charger a bit better from the elements :)

    The chargers will already be waterproof, so you shouldn't need to do anything.

    Beyond that, I'm sure you could put some kind of plastic garden box over it, depending on where it is.

    We've had uncovered chargers outside at work for 5 or 6 years and none have failed yet

    Hi Elizabeth, I have a cover for my own charging point from a British company called Devon Disability Collective – they were super helpful and the cover is really good quality too. Always nice when you support a smaller domestic company too. 

    I hope this helps!



    Do I detect canned meat of the pork and ham variety?

    I can knock something up from ply and a bit of shed felt for £50 if you give me the dimensions?
