The Bokman Level 2 Mobile Charger delivers fast, efficient charging for Tesla vehicles, including Model 3/Y/X/S/Cybertruck. With a 16Amp power output and a 25ft cable, it features a NEMA 6-20 plug for Level 2 charging and NEMA 5-15 compatibility for Level 1, ensuring versatile, reliable performance at home or on the go.

The Bokman 16 Amp Wall Charger is an affordable and reliable solution for Tesla charging at home or on the go. It supports both Level 1 and Level 2 charging, making it versatile for various needs. The charger is compatible with all Tesla models, including the Model 3, Y, S, X, and Cybertruck. Its 25-foot cable provides ample reach for most garages and driveways.

The charger includes a NEMA 6-20 plug for 240V sockets and a NEMA 5-15 adapter for 120V outlets. This flexibility ensures you can charge effectively regardless of the power source. A built-in LED indicator shows charging status and alerts users to potential issues. Safety features like overcharge, leakage, and undervoltage protection add confidence to its operation.

The interface is simple, with touch buttons for adjusting settings such as amperage. While the buttons may respond slower than physical alternatives, this design improves water and dust resistance. Adjustments must be made before connecting the charger or starting a charging session.

Users appreciate the charger’s build quality and durable cable, which remains cool during operation, even in hot climates. Its compact size and included carrying case make it easy to transport, while its wall-mount capability allows it to double as a stationary unit.

This charger delivers consistent performance for daily use without extra apps or smart features. It is particularly suited for those who prioritize functionality and affordability over premium features. While not ideal for high-power needs beyond 16 amps, it is a solid choice for typical charging routines.

The Bokman charger offers both Level 1 and Level 2 compatibility, making it versatile and portable. It comes with a NEMA 6-20 plug for Level 2 charging and a NEMA 5-15 plug for Level 1 charging. In comparison, the Lectron Level 1 Tesla Charger is a 110V, 15 Amp charger with a NEMA 5-15 plug and a 16 ft extension cord. While both chargers are compatible with all Tesla models (X/Y/3/S), we recommend the Bokman for its budget-friendly price, added features, and dual charging capabilities.

We recommend the Bokman 16 Amp Wall Charger as a cost-effective solution for Tesla owners looking for a reliable portable Tesla charging option. It supports both Level 1 and Level 2 charging, offering flexibility for different power sources. However, it lacks the advanced features and faster charging speeds found in Tesla EV charger models. If budget is not an issue, and you are looking for a permanent (hardwired) home EV charger for Tesla, we recommend purchasing Tesla chargers.
