These adapters come in a cardboard box. This leaves it suspetable to damage or dust/grime. I found a case that the adapter will fit in perfectly. Harbor Freight sells it and it is the Apache 1800. I purchased it for $12.95 plus tax. It is waterproof and has enough space for the supplied foam to be cut to fit.

I put mine in a neoprene bag originally intended for a camera lens. Pretty sure it cost a lot less than $13 lol. It wouldn't be waterproof like the above mentioned case but it's in the cab or frunk anyway.

Nice find! :thumbsup: I'm cheap. I went with a little black ditty bag that I had with my camping gear. Fits nicely under the rear seat.

I was thinking about making an insert for the driver's side door bin that would hold it and keep it from rattling around. Tesla has a "dock" for their J1772 adapter, which I thought was a rather logical idea.

The A2Z adapters I bought came in little zippered cases. If they didn’t come with cases I’d still throw them in the same spot under the rear seat without concern. I wouldn’t want to add a bulkier case to store them.

Yes, I have one of them. Here is a picture of the old one in its case. I've since received the new one as part of the recall. You can see the size difference between the old and the new. It's an annoyance to unzip the case all the time (first world problems), but I don't like the adapted sitting loose in my door bin.

Yup, thought about that with the old adapter but looking at the door pockets it wasn't going to work with the old one as it was bulky. This Lectron one seems a lot slimmer so it might work. I was hoping @BestEvMod would modify their center console to fit that adapter
