That's my only option for charger location.
Garage is too small to park the new Plug-In.

I have mine in the carport. 240 volt plug in. I went plug in, because it's portable and I can take it with me, when and if, I move. Purchased it from Clipper Creek in the US. Duty Free, 'cause made in the US of A. Picked it up in Blaine. Brought it across without paying a cent. Back when borders were still open.

I have a receptacle inside the garage and one outside the garage wall. I used a welding extension to get the unit up high and at the furthest point possible without getting it in a place where it can get wet. It's rated for outdoor use, though. I have the truck and the SUV parked in the carport, so I needed the extra length. It's really reliable and simple. Just plug in and it starts. Disconnect and it goes into standby mode. I have two of them, actually. One for the house (Nema 14-50) and one that I used to plug in at work. Welding outlet (Nema 6-50).
I'm retired now, but go back once in a while. It comes in handy. Even if it's level two, it gets the job done.
