Ctek mxs05

[Backofthenet]

Can these chargers be used on a car that is outside and covered?

[Northnoble]

I move my ctek charger between my F Type (garaged) and my race prepared Mini which sits outside. I always put a big plastic box over the charger to keep in dry, and all seems good!

Covering the charger when outside is a good idea but is not really necessary as they are rated to IP65, definition below
A fixture with an IP rating of 65 is protected against multi-directional, low-pressure water jets. In order to pass testing and achieve an IP65 rating, fixtures must be able to withstand water projected by a 0.25-inch nozzle. To achieve satisfactory results, this test must be run for a minimum of fifteen minutes, with the water source placed three yards from the fixture. Additionally, the water pressure must be 30 kPa with a water volume of 3.3 gallons per minute.
