EV Charging Gift Kits for Dealerships and EV Owners Clubs (2026)
By Erik Nyholm — WenStorm
TL;DR
WenStorm has four pre-built bundle kits that work as B2B gifts for dealerships, EV owners clubs, and small fleets — the Universal Host Kit (from $408.56) covers both Tesla and non-Tesla recipients in a single SKU (with vehicle-specific caveats), and three connector-specific kits cover more targeted use cases. There is no self-serve bulk-pricing portal today; request a volume quote from contact@wenstormcharge.com and the sales team will reply with per-order pricing, lead time, and packaging options. For orders under ten units, the retail bundle prices below are usually your floor.
Which buyer type are you?
Pick the row that matches your use case; the recommended kit and next step follow.
| Your role | Common situation | Recommended kit |
|---|---|---|
| Dealership F&I manager | Want a differentiated new-EV-delivery gift. Don’t always know in advance which brand the customer will buy. | Universal Host Kit — one SKU covers both Tesla and non-Tesla buyers (NACS charger + J1772 adapter + extension). |
| Dealership marketing | Running a trade-in event or EV-week promo. Need a practical gift that matches the brand you’re pushing. | Match to the brand: Road Trip Kit (J1772) for non-Tesla events, Tesla/NACS TT-30 Kit for Tesla events. |
| EV owners club president | New-member welcome kit or annual member-benefit perk. Club has a mix of Tesla and non-Tesla owners. | Universal Host Kit for mixed-brand clubs, or let members pick between J1772 Road Trip and Tesla TT-30 kits. |
| Small fleet manager (5–50 vehicles) | Want a consistent charging kit for every driver. Drivers take vehicles home overnight; home-outlet mix varies. | J1772 Apartment Kit (Level 1) for guaranteed any-outlet coverage, or the connector-specific road-trip kits for drivers with confirmed 240V at home. |
Not covered here: fleet EVs with 48A onboard chargers that need hardwired Level 2 at a central depot — WenStorm does not sell hardwired wall units. See the portable vs wall-mounted comparison for the depot-install decision.
The four bundles that work as B2B gifts
Each kit maps to a specific recipient story. All four ship in gift-friendly retail packaging today; co-branded packaging is not currently a stocked option.
Universal Host Kit — one SKU for any new-EV buyer
From $408.56. The NACS-native 32A Level 2 portable charger plus a NACS-to-J1772 adapter plus a 21 ft extension. The physical configuration fits both NACS and J1772 inlets, which covers most mainstream US EVs on paper — but confirm your specific vehicle’s charging-system documentation permits the adapter chain before the recipient relies on this at home. Not every EVSE manufacturer permits a vehicle-side extension; not every vehicle supports a third-party adapter at full rated current. One SKU on your shelf, with the caveat that recipients should verify their specific configuration.
Why dealerships pick this: F&I doesn’t need to know the customer’s exact EV at delivery — the kit covers the two major connector standards. Shelf it, hand it over on delivery, done.
Road Trip Kit (J1772, 32A + 21 ft extension) — non-Tesla customer, road-trip framing
$314.98. The J1772 Level 2 portable charger plus a 21 ft J1772-to-J1772 vehicle-side extension cable. Covers the "I need to charge at the cabin / Airbnb / in-law’s place" scenario that most new EV owners discover in month two.
Why dealership marketing picks this: gift-with-purchase at an F-150 Lightning, Mach-E, Ioniq 5 (pre-2025), Equinox EV, or Kia EV launch event. Price point lands in the single-gift-budget range ($250–$350) without feeling cheap.

Tesla/NACS TT-30 Road Trip Kit — Tesla buyer, campground/RV framing
$215.98. A Tesla/NACS vehicle-side extension cable plus a TT-30 adapter for campgrounds and RV parks. Lowest-cost kit in the lineup — good match for member-benefit mailings where per-unit cost matters. Compatibility caveat: the Tesla Mobile Connector owner’s manual prohibits supply-side cord extensions; this kit is intended for the vehicle-side (EVSE handle to car inlet) configuration only, and recipients should confirm their specific Tesla charger documentation permits a vehicle-side extension before use.
Why owners clubs pick this: every Tesla owner eventually hits a campground or RV park with a TT-30; this kit answers that moment. Give-away budgets of $200–$225 per member fit cleanly.
J1772 Apartment Kit — renters, apartment residents, drivers without 240V access
$341.98. The J1772 Level 1 (120V, NEMA 5-15) portable charger plus accessories for standard household-outlet charging. Not the fastest kit, but the only one that works when the recipient has no guaranteed 240V outlet at home.
Why fleet managers pick this: when drivers take vehicles home overnight and home-outlet access is unknown, a Level 1 kit guarantees a baseline charging path. Combine with a workplace Level 2 install for the "overnight top-up at home, catch up at work" pattern.

How to order at volume
Be direct about what WenStorm offers today and what we don’t:

When WenStorm bundles are NOT the right B2B gift
- You need a $50–$100 trinket. The lowest-priced kit (Tesla TT-30 Kit at $215.98) sets the floor. A $50 budget is below the WenStorm per-unit break-even for a functional kit.
- You need custom silkscreen / engraving on the hardware itself. Not currently offered. Co-branded packaging is a case-by-case conversation; hardware co-branding is not.
- Your recipients drive fleets with 48A hardwired depot charging only. WenStorm doesn’t make hardwired wall units. For a depot install, point the fleet manager to an Emporia or ChargePoint hardwired SKU and reserve the WenStorm portable for the take-home driver layer.
- You want a public case-study-led pitch. WenStorm does not publish dealer case studies, testimonials, or attribution-level B2B references today. Ask on the sales call for current references — some exist but are not posted publicly.
