EV plug cap (with retainer)
Description
Oh no, not another electric car type 2 charging plug cap! Well this one incorporates a tether string and cable clip. so is a good all in one solution. It must be made in TPU or similar flexible and durable material. PLA will just break. I have included 2 files. One with water drain vent holes and one without. If the plug is located outside and is to hang downwards, please use the vented one. Otherwise it will fill and pool when it rains and will cause electrolytic corrosion to the pins (especially the CP pin which always has 12V present!). If it is to hang always facing upwards outside, then use the unvented one. Also if its inside garage or similar, probably use the unvented one. The clip on end will attach nicely to the thick charging cable near the plug handle. The flexible cord was drawn freehand with the mouse. It looks a bit weird but soon stretches out ok in use. I suppose if you really want it straight you could easily heat it with a hair dryer whilst pulling it straight carefully. I didnt bother and its just fine for me. TPU is great for this as it is very strong and durable yet stretchy at the same time. Enjoy!
