Product Overview
This magnetic EV charging port rain cover is designed to protect your electric vehicle's charging interface from rain, snow, dust, and UV exposure during outdoor charging. Made from durable PVC with a soft magnetic strip, it adheres securely to ferrous car bodies without damaging paint. Ideal for Australian EV owners who charge in variable weather, this universal-fit shield ensures safe, uninterrupted charging while preserving the longevity of your charging equipment — giving you peace of mind every time you plug in outdoors.
Key Features
- Waterproof PVC Construction: High-quality PVC material effectively blocks rain and moisture from entering the charging port, reducing the risk of electrical faults during wet conditions.
- Soft Magnetic Attachment: Flexible magnetic strip provides strong adhesion to steel-bodied vehicles without scratching or leaving residue, ensuring stable placement even in windy conditions.
- Universal Compatibility: Designed to fit most standard EV charging ports, making it suitable for a wide range of electric vehicle models across Australia.
- Dust and UV Resistance: Shields the charging connector from airborne particles and prolonged sun exposure, helping maintain optimal performance and appearance over time.
- Compact and Portable: Lightweight at approximately 200 g and folds flat for easy storage in a glove compartment or charging bag, ready for use whenever needed.
- Transparent Design: Allows you to monitor charging status without removing the cover, adding convenience without compromising protection.
Why It Stands Out
Unlike rigid or adhesive-based covers, this rain cover combines flexibility with secure magnetic attachment, allowing quick installation and removal without tools. Its transparent design lets you monitor charging status without removing the cover, while the generous 60 x 50 cm dimensions accommodate various plug configurations and cable angles. The thoughtful balance of protection, convenience, and vehicle safety makes it a practical everyday accessory for EV drivers — no modifications, no residue, no hassle.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- Q: Will this fit my electric vehicle?
A: This cover is designed as a universal fit for most standard EV charging ports. The 60 x 50 cm size accommodates a wide range of plug configurations and cable angles. However, please ensure your vehicle has a ferrous (steel) body for the magnetic strip to adhere properly.
- Q: Will the magnetic strip damage my car's paint?
A: No. The soft magnetic strip is specifically designed to adhere without scratching or leaving residue on your vehicle's surface. For best results, ensure the contact area is clean and dry before application.
- Q: Can I use this on an aluminium-bodied car?
A: Unfortunately, no. The magnetic strip requires a ferrous (iron or steel) surface to adhere. It will not stick to aluminium, plastic, or carbon fibre body panels.
- Q: Is it safe to use while the car is actively charging?
A: The cover is designed to protect the charging port during outdoor charging. However, please check your local regulations, as some areas may have restrictions on covering the port during active charging.
- Q: How do I store it when not in use?
A: The cover folds flat and weighs only 200 g, making it easy to store in your glove compartment, door pocket, or charging bag.
- Q: Does the transparent design scratch easily?
A: The PVC material is durable and designed for regular use. To maintain clarity, wipe gently with a soft cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners.
