Hi all,
Can somebody explain what I need to safely charge my Outlander? Seems there are so many different cables, recommendations, advice etc it's very confusing for somebody like me who is electrically inept and a noob PHEV owner.
Currently, I am charging in the evening with the granny charger in the house so I can keep an eye on it and disconnecting before I go to bed. It's not an ideal setup as I only get about 75% charge and then I warm the car up for the toddler in the morning which drops it the percentage. I need a permanent solution.
I obviously want a safe setup but also need to keep in mind it's just a PHEV so doesn't have the demand a full EV has.
What are fellow Outlander owners' setups?
Also, what is a type 2 charger? I see this being mentioned here and there?
Many thanks
