The device for rolling the EV charger cable is designed to maintain a "suspended" position for the cable, preventing it from touching the ground and minimizing friction. This effectively balances the tension from the coiled spring with the cable's own weight, enhancing the aesthetics of the charging station while also prolonging the lifespan of the cable.
The EV Cable Retractor helps to manage and store your Level 1 or Level 2 charging cable by holding it aloft and keeping it tidy. This device, which is easy to install, uses a spring-loaded tether to hang and store the cable. Whether you're setting up a new system or need a way to manage the cable of an existing charger, it ensures a safe, neat, and orderly environment.
Quality Construction: High-strength, reinforced synthetic fiber braid, electrically conductive polymer core tubing dissipates static electrical buildup while protecting the hose from wear and tear with an abrasion-resistant polymer cover.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the EV Cable Retractor help protect the cable?
The retractor keeps the cable in a suspended state, preventing it from dragging on the ground, which reduces wear, friction, and the risk of being driven over.
Is the device compatible with all Level 2 chargers?
Yes, it is excellent for Level 2 EV charger cable management and is compatible with cables up to 21mm in diameter.
What are the installation options for this retractor?
The system is designed for versatility and can be mounted on a wall, a pole, or a dedicated pedestal/ground stand.
Does the retractor pull too hard while charging?
No, the tension is engineered to be smallest while the cable is in the charging position to protect the charging plug, while providing maximum force when lifting the cable off the ground.
What is the retract range of the spring-loaded tether?
The device offers a retract range of up to 400CM, providing ample length for standard charging station setups.
What is the construction material of the housing?
The housing is made of high-quality steel with a powder-coated finish for long-lasting durability and protection against the elements.
