During years of operation in different environments, we haven't heard of any cable theft but if you want to feel extra safe, here are 5 different methods to secure your charging cable attached to a Plugzio device:

Electric vehicles will automatically lock the charging cable in when the vehicle doors are locked. This would make it extremely difficult for someone to take your charger.

Plugzio is designed like a standard outlet so you have the option to purchase a lockable cover from your local hardware store (about $15) and install it on top of the Plugzio unit. This allows you to lock your cable in so that not only anyone can take it from the vehicle (method #1) but also no one can unplug the cable from the Plugzio unit.

Here are some products that fit well with Plugzio:

Lockable Cover 1

Lockable Cover 2

Lockable Cover 3

Lockable Cover 4

Lockable Cover 5

You will receive a notification on your mobile phone as soon as you get unplugged from the device. This will give you a piece of mind that you will always be alerted if the charging gets interrupted for whatever reason (e.g. your EV becomes fully charged).

Plugzio Universal can be installed in line with a charger, so there would be no easy way to take the charger away. If you want to have a cable securely attached to your Plugzio unit, using Plugzio Universal may be the best way to go.

Throughout the years we have witnessed some creative ways people secure their chargers, here are some of them:
