This is a remix of hag's J1772 Dummy Socket model, for which I have enlarged the opening holding the J1772 handle's pin that keeps it in place in the receptacle.

The receptacle itself is angled, and has two holes for screws*. Good for adding a place to secure your J1772 cable near to where your chargeport door is on your car when you park.

* You may need to drill out the screwholes a little to fit screws - I did. I haven't gotten around to increasing the diameter of the screwholes yet - a drill does quick work of this though.
 

The increased size opening for the J1772 handle pin has been tested with a ChargePoint Home J1772 handle (an early model of their Chargepoint Home unit - in case they changed them), and the J1772 handle from our 2012 Prius Plug-in EVSE that came with the car - it has a metal pin that is larger even than the ChargePoint Home's pin. Both width and height of the hole needed to be extended slightly to accomodate these J1772 handles.

The photo of two of these shows the original model from hag, printed in grey PLA, next to my modified design printed in black ASA. (Ignore the warping on the ASA print - I'm still trying to get that dialed in).
