Hi everyone!

I wanted to start a thread about portable EV chargers. I’m thinking of buying one myself, but with so many brands and models out there, with different power ratings (3.5–7 kW+), Type 2 connectors, smart features with apps and all sorts of extras, it's hard to know where to start.
Which brands or models have you personally used and liked?
Based on your real-world experience, which portable charger would you recommend?
Are there any features that really make a difference for everyday use?
Thanks in advance!

Let's start with the fact that I wasn't planning on changing my car at the moment. I just shared my thoughts that Fiat might be a good option. As for the car charger, why can't I find out more information if I'm interested? Is there a list of questions that cannot be discussed openly on the forum?

What are you on about?

You asked a weird vague question about chargers, and got some answers about chargers.

This, and their other posts just sounds like AI generated bks. Makes no sense.

The car is the portable charger. The charger is in the car.
