The Pando Smart Outlet: Built to Last a Lifetime

As electric vehicles (EVs) become more popular, the demand for reliable and efficient charging infrastructure continues to grow. The Pando Smart Outlet has been engineered to meet this demand, offering a durable and robust Level 2 charging solution specifically designed for apartment buildings and condominiums. With its built-in safety features, long-lasting performance, and low-maintenance design, the Pando Smart Outlet is an ideal choice for multi-residential living spaces where EV charging access is essential.

Engineered for Longevity: Up to 40 Years of Reliable Service

One of the most significant advantages of the Pando Smart Outlet is its ability to withstand up to 15,000 plug/unplug cycles. This means the outlet is built to last for approximately 40 years, ensuring long-term reliability for both property owners and tenants.

In a world where technology often feels disposable, the Pando Smart Outlet stands apart, offering a sustainable, long-term solution specifically engineered for high-traffic environments, such as apartment complexes, where EV charging stations are heavily used.

EV charging stations in residential settings often face continuous use, especially in multi-unit dwellings. The Pando Smart Outlet is specifically designed to handle these demands effortlessly, enduring up to 15,000 plug/unplug cycles-equivalent to decades of reliable service. Whereas traditional cabled EV charging systems, often require significant maintenance after a few years, the Pando Smart Outlet offers maintenance-free operation.

For property managers, this means reduced costs and fewer disruptions for residents who depend on these charging stations. Frequent maintenance or cable replacement is costly to the property and inconvenient for residents who rely on the stations for their daily commutes. With the Pando Smart Outlet, you can be confident that the charging stations will remain functional for decades, providing a long-lasting and dependable solution for tenants with electric vehicles.

Prioritizing Safety with Built-In GFCI Breaker

Safety is paramount in any EV charging solution, especially in multi-residential spaces where multiple vehicles charge simultaneously. The Pando Smart Outlet addresses these concerns with its integrated Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) breaker. The GFCI feature automatically cuts power if it detects any electrical imbalance, preventing potential electrical shocks and hazards.

This added layer of protection is essential in apartment and condo settings, where EV chargers are often installed in shared garages or outdoor spaces exposed to the elements. With the built-in GFCI breaker, residents and property owners can rest assured that the Pando Smart Outlet is designed to maintain a safe charging environment, regardless of weather or other external factors.

The Pando Smart Outlet offers a smart, sustainable, and secure solution for EV charging in multi-residential living spaces. With its unparalleled durability, minimal maintenance, and advanced safety features, it ensures that property managers and residents alike can enjoy long-term, worry-free access to electric vehicle charging.

Key Features Include:

NEMA 3R waterproof for outdoor use

The Pando Smart Outlet is certified NEMA 3R waterproof protection, against rain, snow, sleet, and external ice formation, ensuring reliable and safe use in outdoor environments. This level of weather resistance is crucial for maintaining the integrity of EV charging stations in all conditions, preventing moisture ingress that could damage electrical components or create safety hazards. With NEMA 3R, the Pando Smart Outlet delivers both durability and safety, ensuring uninterrupted EV charging no matter the weather.

Built-in protection 

The Pando Smart Outlet is designed with advanced hardware and firmware protection to ensure safe and reliable charging. It features over-temperature, over-voltage, and over-current protection, which means that the outlet can automatically shut off locally without relying on a server if any irregularities are detected. This built-in safety mechanism is crucial for preventing potential damage to both the charging station and the connected EVs, safeguarding against issues like overheating or power surges. For property managers and residents, this provides peace of mind, knowing that the charging process remains safe even in high-traffic, multi-residential environments.

No charging cable, no charging gun

In addition to its robust safety features, the Pando Smart Outlet is designed without traditional charging cables or guns, which significantly reduces the risk of vandalization and minimizes failure points. By eliminating these components, Pando addresses common challenges faced by traditional EV chargers, such as tangled or stolen cables. This cable-free design makes the outlet a low-maintenance solution that remains operational for longer periods without the need for costly repairs or replacements. The result is a more secure, reliable charging experience for tenants and property managers alike, ensuring uninterrupted access to EV charging in shared residential spaces.

Designed for Apartment and Condo Installations

The Pando Smart Outlet is tailor-made for multi-unit residential buildings. Its compact design makes it easy to install in shared garages, carports, or dedicated parking spaces without requiring significant infrastructure changes. For property managers, this means an easier and more cost-effective installation process compared to larger, bulkier charging units.

In addition to its easy installation, the Pando Smart Outlet’s durable design ensures it can handle the environmental stresses typically found in shared residential spaces. From exposure to varying weather conditions to the potential for high usage rates, this outlet is built to withstand the rigors of real-world apartment and condo environments.
