One Stop Customized Portable EV Charger - The Ultimate Solution
Portable EV charger, also known as Mode 2 EV cable. This is an EV charging device that can be carried with the vehicle and used in any environment with power supply conditions. Some products will be equipped with different EV adaptors, which can adapt to different power sockets, which is very convenient. Because it can be carried with a car, its volume is smaller and lighter than a wallbox. The output power is generally 3.6kW. The output power of some high-power versions of portable EV chargers can reach 7.2kW, up to 16kW. The length of the effective charging cable is generally 5-6m, and it can reach 8-9m for special customization service. But generally, it will not exceed 10m.
Portable EV charger appeared later than wallbox. In view of its charging power and product functions, the market volume of portable EV charger in some regions is not as large as wallbox chargers. The main reasons are as follows:
- Requires longer charging time
- Functions are not as powerful as an EV wallbox charger, for example, it’s unable to export charging data
- Ordinary electric vehicle users prefer to use EV wallboxes at home
- Portable EV charger generally does not support app or ocpp functions and cannot be controlled remotely
- The portable car charger regular model does not support the remote upgrade of the background program
However, the market growth rate and market potential of portable EV charger are very huge. It has two great advantages that can make up for all its shortcomings: simple operation and cheap price. With the popularity of electric vehicles and the continuous updating and iteration of portable EV charging products, portable EV charger is being recognized and accepted by more and more consumers. No car owner will refuse to put a cool looking partner in the car who can charge anytime, anywhere. Moreover, with the change of people’s concept, the main role of portable EV charger is from charging EVs to replenishing EV power at any time. Now, the use habit of a wallbox charger and a portable EV charger in a family is developing. Moreover, the portable EV charger does not need to be installed, and the volume is small, which greatly facilitates EV owners who do not have the conditions to install a wallbox charger.
From a professional perspective and based on our market feedback data, we believe that portable EV chargers will have explosive development in the next few years. Therefore, if you are interested in EV charging products, now is the best time to enter this field, understand the market, develop channels, and accumulate customers. The sooner you start doing these things, the sooner you can occupy a larger market.
Moreover, the development cost and development cycle of portable EV charger are less than that of EV wallbox charger. For customers with customization needs, if this is the first customization, we generally recommend starting with the customization of portable EV chargers, which will make your customization road start faster and more stable.
Things To Consider Before Customize Portable EV Charger
If you decide to customize a portable EV charger for yourself, please read this page carefully. This is what we have summarized based on years of industry experience and project feedback about the precautions before customizing a portable EV charger. We believe these introductions and suggestions can help you customize your favorite portable EV charger more smoothly.
Which market does the control box need to be used in?
As a business owner, it is important to understand the different needs of different regions for the EV charging control boxes. If you want your portable EV charger to succeed in the global market, you need to adjust according to the needs of each region. This may be a difficult task, but it can certainly be achieved through careful research and planning.
| Target Market | Output Power | Interface Standard |
| North America | 3.6kW-8.8kW | SAE J1772 |
| Europe | 3.6kW（single phase）/ 16kW（three phase） | IEC62196-2 |
| China, India and some South Asian markets | 3.6kW | GB |
Different market has different markt demands, relevant standards, design directions and certification requirements. So before deciding to customize portable car charger, we must first determine where our target market is.
Positioning Of Portable EV Charger
It is very important to clarify your product positioning before starting a customized project. It’s directly decided
- Product design ideas for the portable electric vehicle charger
- Function selection of portable electric vehicle charger
- Selling points of products of portable electric vehicle charger
- Components selection for the portable electric vehicle charger
- Materials Selection for the portable electric vehicle charger
- Cost budget for the portable electric vehicle charger
It is unrealistic for a product to cover all customer groups. As long as its product positioning and corresponding market demand are clear, both simple and high-end models can have their own corresponding markets and appropriate customer groups.
Selling Points Of Control Box
Any good and impressive product will have its core values. Selling points must be attractive and easy to promote. If a product claims to have all the selling points during publicity, then it has no special recognition for customers. From the perspective of marketing, a product full of selling points has actually no selling points. Therefore, it is very important to determine the selling points before product design. This can not only effectively improve the recognition of their own products, but also determine a clear marketing direction before sale. Generally speaking, the selling points of the portable EV charger can be considered in the following directions:
- Stable and safe performance of portable EV charger
- Charger durable and anti-pressure
- With intelligent adapter, suitable for various scenarios
- Intelligent chip, automatic error correction
- Strong adaptability, high compatibility with all EV models
- Intelligent program upgrade
A product can have many advantages, but as a selling point of marketing, it’s best to lock the one that stands out and is easiest to remember. More importantly, determining the selling points can make our design more targeted.
Distribution Channel Of Portable EV Charger
A complete and effective sales strategy is crucial to the sales of products
- Is it offline store mode or online sales mode?
- Is it sold on self built stations or on Amazon?
- Have your own sales team or as an importer who wholesales to other distributors?
To be exact, there is not much correlation between the sales channel and the customization of the control box. The sales channel mentioned here is just an example.
We expect every customer to think carefully when ordering portable EV chargers, and give comprehensive consideration to every detail. It’s like a battle. Before the battle begins, careful preparations need to be made.
We will also provide suggestions in some key places based on our experience. Every customer can get benefits through cooperation with us and avoid detours, which is what we want to see.
Instructions For Wholesale Portable EV Charger Customization
Compared with the customization process of EV wallbox chargers, the customization of portable EV charger will be relatively simple, with fewer parameters to be determined, and the related costs will be cheaper. This is why we recommend new customers to choose the customized project of portable EV charger first.
Equipment structure:
Considering that the portable EV charger is sometimes placed on the ground, it is inevitable to encounter vehicle rolling, so we generally do not recommend customers to make too complex structures. Basically, the main structural direction is anti-pressure with a solid shell.
Device function:
Portable EV charger is mainly used as a supplement to the way of charging outdoors. Its main function is to be suitable for normal use in different charging environments. We will pay more attention to the identification and adaptation of different charging environments, and it is not recommended to add too many complex functions to a portable EV charger. Of course, if there are special requirements or customization are needed in order to follow the high-end route, we can also add the required functional modules according to the requirements.
Waterproofness:
Portable EV charger needs to face the same waterproof problem as EV wallbox in outdoor use, the possibility of being soaked by rain is even higher since it is placed on the ground. Therefore, compared with EV wallbox, it also has higher requirements for waterproofness.
Charging cable:
For EV charging cables, the degree of friction on the ground is much higher than that of EV wallbox cables, and there is a greater possibility of contacting oil stains and other substances that may damage the cable sheath. Therefore, for the selection of portable EV charger’s cable materials, it is generally recommended to use TPU materials with better performance.
Wall end plug:
At present, the main wall plugs of portable EV charger in the market include BS, Schuko, CEE, AU and NEMA. When customizing, customers can determine the wall plug according to the main target market. If you want to follow the high-end route and make the portable EV charger more widely applicable, we will suggest using it with an adaptive plug. This adapter has convenient connection, high water resistance, and supports plug identification and temperature monitoring. It is very attractive for some customers who pursue high quality products.
Unlike EV wallbox chargers, which uses a fixed power supply, portable EV charger will generally be used in different power consumption environments, so more situations need to be considered and the requirements for power safety will be higher. As an expert in this field, evseODM will not only set up a perfect protection mechanism for the equipment but also use two exclusive patented technologies to further protect the products and ensure the absolute safety of the chargers.
- The full link temperature control system, from the charger plug to the cable to the control box, constantly monitors the temperature of each part of portable EV charger. Once the set temperature value is exceeded, the charging will be stopped immediately to ensure charger safety.
- Self identifying adapter plug. For different adapter plugs, the control box can automatically set the maximum charging current to prevent customers from setting the wrong charging setting, which leads to charging current greater than the power load at the wall end, resulting in power consumption hazards.
FAQs About Portable EV Charger Wholesale Customization
Should I choose a straight cable or spring cable?
Straight cables are cheaper. Currently, portable EV chargers generally use straight cables. However, the spring cable has obvious advantages in storage, which is also recognized by more and more customers, and has more recognition in the market. At present, some customers who use spring cables have also received very good market feedback. The specific choice still needs to be decided according to their own market positioning.
Is the charger display necessary?
Is the more power switches that portable EV charger needs to support, the better?
How long does the customization cycle of portable EV charger generally take?
Because our program, protection mechanism, functional modules and other sections are mature, we only need to make some changes according to the customization requirements, so the customization process is more about determining the appearance, combining the appropriate modules together with customization stability. And the customization cycle will be very short. If there is no special demand, it usually takes 30-45 days.
Classifications And Parameter Options Of Portable EV Cable
These are some basic classifications and parameters of portable EV chargers. After these parameters are determined, the customization direction of portable EV chargers is basically determined. Of course, there are many other important parameters, which are only schematic. We will communicate with customers in detail to confirm the details of each parameter before customization, so as to ensure that the products fully meet the expectations of customers. What if the customer has just entered this field and is not sure about some parameters?
It doesn’t matter. We will design the most suitable parameter configuration of portable EV charger for customers according to their market positioning and needs.

My name is Delmar Byers, from Norway. I thought this would be a huge market and wanted to enter this field，but I knew very little about the EV industry. I was worried about whether I can do it well. To be honest, I am very grateful for their suggestions. Through more than 8 months of cooperation, I had a better understanding of the market and evseODM. Now everyone thinks it’s the right timing and I am discussing the customization of new products with them. I am very excited. I will soon have a portable EV charger product that completely belongs to my own company.

To be honest, I didn’t expect it to be so simple to customize a portable EV charger. All the modules of evseodm about portable EV charger were ready-made. We only needed to put forward our product requirements and determine the product appearance, and they could customize the product according to the requirements. The whole process was like DIY assembly of computers. This feeling is very good and fast. We began to communicate in March 2021, and the product was able to be sold online by the end of May 2021, which was far faster than we expected, I think this is a very professional company, which deserves to be known by more customers.
