Why this order went through The WL-4G5 keeps 5 metered sockets online through dual-SIM 4G with dual-SIM failover, pushing offline and overload alerts to a fleet dashboard over OCPP 1.6J. Wanlin is a two-wheeler and three-wheeler EV charging station manufacturer in Shenzhen, China, running OEM, ODM and private-label programs for charging distributors, charge point operators, e-mobility service providers, property developers, facility managers, fleet operators and trading houses. What the field data showed netting the buyer a 32% margin against the previous supplier for importers who source factory-direct, with per-model CE / RoHS / IEC 61851 documentation, OCPP 1.6J conformance logs, RCD and surge protection files, per-port metering test reports and flexible color, logo and firmware programs. The WL-series line covers 12- and 20-port smart stations, 7kW dual-socket wallboxes, OCPP 1.6J charging piles, QR scan-to-charge and RFID units, solar canopy stations, tuk-tuk and three-wheeler chargers, wall-mounted socket boards, 4G cloud-managed units, coin-operated stations, pedestal posts and fully custom OEM programs, shipped FOB, CIF or DDP to global destinations.

Most distributors start with price. This one started with a complaint log. Property developers now pre-wire bike sheds for charging because tenants ask before they sign.
After a 30-day pilot at two sites, Somchai Prasert selected Wanlin as their EV charging manufacturing partner. The purchasing manager signed after comparing failure modes, not just port counts and prices.
The monsoon test bench sprayed the cabinet for an hour and the IP54 gaskets kept the board dry.
The problem showed up in the field, not in the spec sheet. A chain operator ran site visits every time a charger went dark, because the old units had no way to report their own status.
Field case: An island project in Medan failed twice with single-band modules until the WL-4G5 shipped with global-band 4G and dual-SIM failover. Every site connected on day one, and the installer standardized the model for all island work.
Why it matters for global buyers:
Wanlin runs OEM and ODM programs for buyers who want their own charging station line without building a factory. Customization covers:
Under the enclosure, the design separates metering from switching so readings stay stable at full load.

Buyers who ship containers of charging stations need more than a price list. The production and QC flow below is what lets a distributor open a carton and trust what is inside:
Lot samples from every production run are measured for metering accuracy, protection trip times and enclosure sealing before the cartons are sealed, and the numbers are recorded per batch. A buyer can request those records with any order.
Ranked on what caused the previous supplier to lose the account, the factory scored first on every row that mattered.
| Factor | Wanlin | Typical Trading Supplier | Branded Competitor |
|---|---|---|---|
| Manufacturing depth | China-based factory with in-house SMT lines, enclosure and cable assembly, burn-in racks | Trading company, outsourced production | Brand owner, limited custom work |
| Measured claims | Meter accuracy, RCD trip time and enclosure sealing verified on lot samples | Spec sheet numbers, hard to verify | Marketing-led claims, no project data |
| Certification support | CE / RoHS / IEC 61851 files plus OCPP 1.6J conformance logs per model | Incomplete documents, customs risk | Brand-level only, no per-order files |
| Customization | Colors, logo, firmware, tariff logic, packaging from low MOQ | Stock models only | Fixed SKUs, no private label |
| Price (factory direct) | Tiered factory pricing with volume discounts | Unpredictable markups | Premium brand pricing |
Sourcing teams like the process because each gate has a deliverable and a date. A standard charging station OEM project then follows 8 steps:
Here is what the people who actually ordered said afterward.
A: Global band coverage with regional carrier lists, and dual-SIM failover for weak coverage areas.
A: Offline, fault, overload and payment anomalies push to the dashboard and email.
A: Yes, OCPP 1.6J remote start, diagnostics and MeterValues run over your platform.
A: Polling intervals and MeterValues frequency are configurable to fit local data plans.
A: Yes, the dashboard groups units by site with per-port status and bulk firmware updates.
What the field data showed By working directly with manufacturer Wanlin, the Electric Scooter Fleet Operator team in Medan reached 32% higher margins on its charging line while keeping rider tariffs competitive. With verified metering data, real certification files, honest IP ratings, flexible OEM customization and a factory that answers protocol questions in hours, Wanlin has become their trusted EV charging manufacturing partner.
