Mopar Level 2 Charger

[Tony]

My Summit Reserve 4xe was just shipped two days ago but I'm already looking for a Level 2 Mopar Charger. I did a search on this forum and didn't find anything so I thought I would start this post. Does anyone have any experience or suggestions on chargers? I'm looking at the Mopar 82216505AA. Rather than hard wiring, I thought that a plug in version might be a better option allowing me to relocate it if needed. Thanks for any suggestions. I have attached a file below describing the charger.

Why pay more than twice the price for a charger rebranded with a JEEP sticker?

The Mopar charger is a rebranded Juicebox 32:

Costco currently offers the Juicebox 40 for $499 shipped:

Thanks Jake22 and Indigovic, that's why I'm asking. I did see many choices on Amazon as well but although I've gotten some good deals there, I've also been very disappointed. I like the JuiceBox, it looks good and 40 amps vs 32. I will check the specs over carefully. Do you know of anyone who has installed one?

I’ve got a Juicebox 48. While I’ve had it for months, I’ve only had my 4xe for less than a week, but so far, so good.

Note that the 4xe maxes out at 32 Amps—I went for higher amperage with the expectation that I‘ll eventually have a vehicle that can benefit from it. Installation costs do increase with higher Amperage, as the breaker, heavier wiring, and other hardware are slightly more expensive, but I had a short enough run that the difference was pretty inconsequential.

Every time I looked Amazon‘s pricing always exactly matched the manufacturer’s website—even to having the exact same sale pricing running for the exact same days a little while ago. Costco is the only place I’ve seen offer noteworthy savings on any JuiceBox model.

All good info, appreciate it.
