I’ve been quite satisfied using the Lectron 240V 40 Amp Level 2 EV Charger with my Honda. Safety is huge for me, and this unit feels really solid without being overpriced. It has a 20-foot cable which should easily cover those extra two feet you need in the garage. Honestly, it’s a reliable, budget-friendly way to get the job done properly before your big trip.

To add to the point above: honestly those high-end chargers are way too expensive for what they are. I had issues with a fancy portable unit that just felt flimsy for the price. Disappointing really. Just grab the Mustart Level 2 Portable EV Charger 25-Amp 26ft instead. It is way more budget-friendly and gives you the reach you need for the coast trip without the sticker shock. TL;DR: Skip the overpriced boosters; get a 26ft Mustart for better value.

@Reply #1 - good point! Honestly though, its so disappointing that Honda cheaped out on the stock cable. I had similar issues and it really ruins the new car vibe. For your coast trip, you definitely need more reach:

• J+ Booster 2 Portable EV Charger 40 Amp 21ft
• Megear Level 2 EV Charger 16 Amp 25ft The Megear is a solid budget choice if you just need length. Dont let a short cord ruin your weekend!
