"Matsukami"   1/3  the price  seem quite good quality so far.

 

 

 

I'm no expert, but 1/3 price but you can see everything is less material, even the metal contact points. Perhaps it still conforms to the standards, but sometimes you really do get what you pay for.

Yeah, my mate has the wall mounted unit and it's definitely hard-wired, I wasn't aware of the portable (or even if he has one).

 

I was looking at pictures online, it seems like porsche only offers one type of charger. The wall mount unit is essentially just a pedestal stand that you can mount on the wall and wind your cable up, it still uses the same charger. Did your friend have the charging unit installed professional by the Porsche technicians? Hence its hard wired?

 

Here are some pictures of the charger and stands for those who are interested:

I just sold my 1997 buick and purchased a 2008 Kia Sorrento with 71k miles.  I am a millionaire and plan to keep it that way.
