00:00Alright, so if you've got an EV and you're hunting for a charging cable that won't wreck
00:04your budget, you're in the right place. I spent way too long digging through listings and I found
00:09the best type 2 electron volts charging cables under $60. Some of these are stupid cheap for
00:15what you get, so let's get into it before prices change. Kicking things off with the cheapest
00:20option that actually delivers, the Kalanke type 2 to type 1 adapter. This is the one I'd grab if
00:26you're charging a J1772 car at a type 2 station, because it handles both 16 and 32 amps and it's
00:32built to the IEC62196 standard, so the fit is solid and it locks in tight. Nearly 4,700 people bought
00:40this thing and it's sitting at 4.9 stars, which basically tells you everything. At just $29.78,
00:48it's the no-brainer budget pick. Next up, and this one's a little different, it's a full portable
00:53charger, not just an adapter. 3.5 kW, 16 amps, type 2 with an EU plug, and it comes with
01:01cable
01:01lengths anywhere from 3 to 20 meters depending on what you pick. That range is the real selling
01:06point, because it means you can actually reach your car from an awkward outlet, and it's plug
01:10and charge, so no app, no fuss. It's $51, rated 4.4 stars with over 3,200 sold. Grab it
01:19if you want a
01:20complete charging setup in one box. Now, same product as number 1, different seller, and it's
01:26cheaper, so listen up. It's the Kalanke Type 2 to Type 1 converter again, 16 and 32 amp rated,
01:34IEC62196 compliant, J1772 connector on the car side. Same 4.9 stars, 2,700 plus sold.
01:43This one lands at $28.90, so if you just need the adapter and you want to save a dollar
01:48and change,
01:49this is your move. Honestly, at this price, buy two and keep one in the trunk.
01:55Fourth pick is for anyone who needs to swap out a worn plug or build their own setup.
02:00It's a Type 2 female charging plug head with a male connector to the car socket, and it supports 3
02:05.6,
02:067.2, 11, and all the way up to 22 kW,
02:09so it works whether you're on a basic home socket or a beefy three-phase setup.
02:144.9 stars, over 2,600 sold, and it's $30.41. If you know your way around a charging setup,
02:22this is a great value component. And finally, the upgrade pick, still under $60.
02:29It's the Teshiv 16 to 32 amp Type 2 to Type 2 charging cable, 11 kW, IEC62196-2 certified.
02:38This is the one to get if you're charging a Type 2 car at a public Type 2 station,
02:42because it's a proper cable, not an adapter, so you get clean, reliable 11 kW charging without
02:48stacking connectors. 4.9 stars, just over 1,000 sold, and it's $57.99.
02:55If you want the best quality in this price range, this is it.
