This is a holster that allows you to clip your J1772 EVSE plug onto a wall. It also has a lip so you cna drap the cable over it to make things nice and tidy.
This design is based on "J1772 connector hanger with hood and cable mount" by Levi8than on Thingiverse: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:230595
I've modified the design by:
* Enlarging it 101% - some users of the original design said it was a bit too tight.
* Moved the cable lip back to provide great strength.
* Made the lip a bit thicker, also for strength
* changed the side profile - just my asthetic preference
* added a air vent hole to make it even easier to insert the plug.
The original design was great - my improvements are only minor.
The third photo is of the original design with the cable lip way out on the leading edge. My design has pulled that back to the mid-point. [I'll replace this photo with one of my design in a few days.]
I printed mine in PLA becasue I prefer it, but other users recommend using PETG or ABS to help it be robust in sunlight. I solved that problem by adding a wooden shelf above by whole EVSE/cable/plug setup - that protects it from most rain and sun. Mine was installed two years ago and still looks fine.
I printe3d at 0.3 mm layer hieght - this doesn't need to be better than that.
Does not need supports.
