In particular, I am wondering how some folks here mounted the charging station to the wall. The cable is easy enough to hang, but the black box has no mounting holes, and no hardware was provided. Did you improvise? Does Audi offer a mounting bracket that comes nicely wrapped in a keepsake box for $$$$? I can pound 4 long nails into the wall and get it to stay in place that way, but I'm hoping to do a little better.

I bought a 2-pack of these "mini quick fist" rubber clamps: They're intended to be mounted to a vehicle (such as a Jeep or a fire truck) to securely hold tools. But I mounted them to the wall in the garage. The rubber strain relief on the top and bottom of the Audi home charger fit perfectly into the cradles, and the straps lock it down securely. This lets me quickly and easily remove the charger from the wall and throw it in the frunk when I'm taking a long trip.

Most of us probably purchased third party EVSE. This is NOT required, and you can use the Audi provided EVSE that came with your car.

You can purchase a mounting bracket that Audi sells from their parts department. It is NOT required.

You can also purchase the Audi wall mounting box which you may have seen on your Audi sales floor. It is a box and simply mounts your included EVSE.

I would say that most first time EV owners use the included EVSE until they have third party EVSE installed and then the included one ends up packed nicely in the frunk and is for road trips only.

There are a few picture threads in the form if you want mounting ideas.

I use the Audi EVSE exclusively. I don't wall mount it. I have a small two-level table. I strap the black box to the lower level and coil and lay the cable on top of the upper level.

Brilliant, thanks. I found some nearby.

That would be perfect if I had room for a table along that wall. I used to have a table there until the garage had to be prepared for the etron. Space limitations force me to wall mount this one.

My $0.02 is to put the Audi charger in the frunk and leave it there, buy a decent EVSE to mount at home. That way you have a backup if your EVSE dies, and the Audi unit is in good shape if you need it on a road trip.

I 3D printed holders that look like the Audi ones. They are very thin, as I didn’t account for thermal expansion, aka how hot the charger got in Texas heat. I will have to redo them soon.

I saw that. It looks pretty clean. I like the way that yours is mounted horizontally. I'm going to do something similar using the rubber clamps that were suggested.
