Prior to taking delivery of my car I bought a brand new Ford Mobile Charger dirt cheap to put in my garage on a somewhat permanent basis by just leaving it plugged in and keeping the one that came with the car in the car.
My question is am I missing something by not having a permanent mounted charger to use with the car? I admit to only having the car for a week but this charger is functioning flawlessly, if it stops I can just throw it away and then make a decision from there.
But for now I consistently get 22-23 miles of range for every hour plugged in, I can set charge times in the app, I can set total charge in the app, the thing just works great. So, why do so many go out and buy an expensive charger for home use, is there something I don't get by using this charger daily? That is other than a mile or two more range for every hour plugged into the car.
*Update, I think I will take the one in the car and put it in the garage for daily use as it has a 3 year warranty, there is that.*
