WenStorm's bundle catalog groups portable chargers, adapters, extension cords, and mounting accessories into scenario-specific kits. There are currently 13 bundles across five scenarios — home, renter, apartment, road trip, and Airbnb host — plus two accessory kits designed for buyers who already own a Tesla Gen 2 Mobile Connector. Most bundles include a WenStorm charger; some are accessory kits for equipment you already own. Pick your scenario, then match the connector to your car.

Why bundle at all

A first-time EV owner researching home charging usually runs into the same set of choices that Reddit and owner forums are full of: whether to plug into an existing 120V outlet (many owners do — one r/electricvehicles user reports charging a 100 kWh Kia EV9 on a 1.7 kW / 8-amp 240V circuit and still getting enough overnight to cover a return commute), whether to have an electrician install a new 240V circuit (and at what amperage), whether the charger's cable will actually reach from the outlet to the parking spot, and whether the connector on the charger matches the vehicle's inlet.

Two misfires show up over and over in those threads. Some owners overspend on a 60A install and hundreds of dollars of heavy-gauge wire when a 20A 240V circuit — or even the existing 120V outlet — would have covered their daily driving. Others hear the quote for a full panel upgrade and turn down the EV entirely, when a lower-amperage setup would have worked fine. As one commenter on the same thread put it: they know "multiple people who have turned away from buying EVs because they didn't want to pay to upgrade their service." On the other end, buyers with 85-mile daily commutes sometimes underspec and find a 20A setup can't keep up.

The bundle kits group compatible components for the most common scenarios so buyers can match the setup to their actual driving pattern instead of overspending or under-specifying. If you know your scenario and your vehicle, the kit narrows the choice for you — but you still need to confirm the specific outlet and circuit at your location.

Home charging kits (Level 1, daily overnight)

Two kits, both $305.98 — one J1772 for non-Tesla EVs and PHEVs, one Tesla/NACS for Tesla vehicles. Both are Level 1 (16A) portable chargers built around the standard 120V NEMA 5-15 household outlet. The vehicle-side extension solves the "outlet is real but not close enough to the parking spot" problem that many home setups face. If your daily driving is under about 40 miles and your car sits at home for at least 8 hours a night, Level 1 is often enough.

Renter kits (portable that goes with you when you move)

Two kits — J1772 at $269.98 and Tesla/NACS at $305.98. Both are designed to leave with the tenant — nothing is hardwired, nothing is bolted to the wall permanently. The bundled vehicle-side extensions cover the common apartment or duplex layout where the outlet isn't next to the parking spot. Landlord permission for the electrical usage is still recommended even for a portable setup.

Apartment kits (outlet-distance problem)

Two kits, both $341.98 — one J1772, one Tesla/NACS. These address the specific problem apartment residents describe most often: the nearest authorized outlet is real, but it's not close enough to the parking spot for a standard charger cable to reach. The bundled extension is sized for that gap. Board or HOA approval for the outlet use, cable routing, or metering may still be required — check the governing documents before assuming a portable setup is exempt.

Road trip kit (charger + extension, for locations with 14-50 outlets)

One kit at $314.98. If your destination has a 240V NEMA 14-50 (many newer campgrounds, vacation rentals, and some Airbnb properties), this kit at Level 2 recovers a full day's driving overnight.

Airbnb host kits (multi-guest support)

Four kits with a range of accessory depth (from $210.57 to $408.56). The consistent design decision across the Airbnb host line is a NACS charger paired with a J1772 adapter. That combination lets both Tesla / NACS guests and non-Tesla / J1772 guests charge from the same setup without the host needing two chargers. The Universal kit shown below is the mid-price flagship; browse the portable EV chargers collection for the 120V, 240V+holder, and Universal+extension variants.

Tesla Gen 2 Mobile Connector accessory kits (charger not included)

Two accessory kits designed to pair with a Tesla Gen 2 Mobile Connector you already own — the RV Park Adapter Kit ($116.98) shown below, and the Tesla/NACS Road Trip Kit ($215.98) which adds a NACS vehicle-side extension. Both kits exist because Mobile Connector owners often want a smaller add-on set rather than a redundant second charger. If you don't already own a Mobile Connector, these are not the right kits for you — look at the charger-inclusive kits above instead.

How to pick when you fit multiple scenarios

Buy in this order:

The vehicle determines the connector. A Tesla or NACS-inlet EV needs a NACS-connector kit. A J1772-inlet EV needs a J1772 kit. If you're a mixed-vehicle household or an Airbnb host, the Airbnb host lineup uses a NACS charger with a bundled J1772 adapter to cover both.
The outlet and circuit determine the electrical setup. A 120V NEMA 5-15 household outlet supports the Level 1 kits. A properly-installed 240V NEMA 14-50 outlet on a 50A circuit supports the Level 2 kits. If your available outlet doesn't match the kit's requirement, an electrician needs to change one or the other before ordering.
The situation determines the accessories. Extension needed for a distant parking spot? Look at kits that bundle one. Multiple guests with different EVs? Airbnb host lineup. Already own a Mobile Connector and just need adapters for RV park pedestals? The accessory kits above.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need anything else besides the kit?

A properly-installed outlet at the right voltage and amperage for the kit you buy. The Level 1 kits need a standard 120V NEMA 5-15 outlet. The Level 2 kits need a 240V NEMA 14-50 outlet on a 50A circuit. If your home doesn't have the right outlet yet, an electrician will need to install it.

How is the price different from buying the components separately?

The bundle price is generally lower than the sum of the components purchased individually. Compare the bundle price to the individual product prices in the portable EV chargers collection to see the exact savings for each kit.

Do the bundles guarantee everything works together?

The components are selected to work together for the stated configuration — a specific charger, adapter set, and accessory list matched to a specific scenario. You still need to verify your vehicle's inlet, your outlet type, your circuit rating, and any existing equipment you plan to use with the kit. If you're unsure, email contact@wenstormcharge.com with your setup for a compatibility check before ordering.

What if the kit I need doesn't exist in the catalog?

The individual components (chargers, adapters, extension cords, holders) can be bought separately and combined for scenarios the pre-built kits don't cover. Email contact@wenstormcharge.com with your scenario for a component recommendation.

Do all kits come with the WenStorm warranty?

Every WenStorm product carries the 2-year limited warranty. See how the WenStorm warranty works for coverage details, or the refund and warranty policy page for authoritative terms.

Are Airbnb host kits only for actual Airbnb hosts?

No. The "Airbnb host" label describes the design intent (multi-vehicle guest support via a NACS charger with a J1772 adapter). Any household with both Tesla and non-Tesla EVs benefits from the same setup.

Which kit should I buy if I just bought my first EV?

Start with the home charging kit that matches your car's connector (J1772 or NACS) if your daily mileage is typical and you have a standard 120V outlet in the garage. If your outlet is far from the parking spot, look at the apartment kit for the longer extension. If you rent, look at the renter kit. Email contact@wenstormcharge.com if you want a scenario-specific recommendation.
