Tesla Universal seems universally liked (so clever). However, I did not want to give my money to Tesla either.
Got 2 of the Autel's and they are great. I have one for my shop and the RF card access feature is very convenient for limiting who can pull up and plug in. The Rivian key card works as the UF card too. I also like that the online access can print out charging schedule history. My business pays for my charging, but my home elec. rates are considerably cheaper than my business rates. So I can charge at home and write it off with good records. Also, if you're willing to wait a bit, they seem to go on sale frequently and you can snag a really good deal.
I picked up a use GrizzlE on CL for cheap to use at a 2nd property I have that has no internet. It's bombproof and just works.
ALL of these are hardwired mostly "outside". 1 Autel and the GrizzlE live in a box with a cover, but completely exposed and the other Autel lives in the back of an open shed where I park at home. They have all worked as expected even under 0 deg. temps.
