I would not recommend Plug In Supply for a PHEV conversion. I attempted to purchase a 4kw DIY kit and had nothing but problems receiving the components. I know of one person who purchased his kit on 6 Feb and has yet to receive all his components. I purchased mine on 22 Feb and have only received the batteries/cells. Several promises were made to me that the kit or certain components would be shipped "tomorrow" or "next week" or, "in two weeks" but all timelines passed without receiving any components. It has been a terrible experience for me. I hope this post will spare someone from going through the same experience I went through. I have been promised a refund but since I posted about my experience on the web, I'm now being threatened with legal action. I don't believe I will ever get a refund nor do I believe I'll ever receive the kit.

The sad thing is as a consumer, there are really no avenues to address an issue like this. The only thing I can do is kiss my money goodbye and warn others about Plug In Supply and Robb Protheroe (owner).

If you're thinking about doing business with Plug In Supply, my advice to you is "Buyer beware".
