3. Key Features & Benefits
-
Silver-Plated Contacts: We use premium silver plating on all power terminals to prevent oxidation and ensure minimal heat buildup during prolonged 80A charging sessions.
-
Ergonomic Integration: The compact housing allows for easy installation behind standard vehicle fuel doors, minimizing the structural modifications required for EV conversions.
-
Reliable Communication: Includes dedicated Control Pilot (CP) and Proximity Pilot (PP) pins to ensure the vehicle only draws power when the plug is fully inserted and the charger is ready.
-
Safety Latch Interface: Designed with a precise mechanical latching interface that prevents the charging gun from being removed while current is flowing, protecting both the user and the vehicle.
