OP = Original Poster (you).

 

Aliexpress has terrible or no quality control and regular outright fraud. I would not be surprised if it turned up and the wires in the cable were copper-clad steel instead of copper, or the safety components were empty boxes. That's how bad it is. Ebay and Amazon are little better. 

 

Buy an EVSE from a reputable local source.

SomeoneSomewhere:

 

65 seconds into the above linked video shows exactly where to see the label on that OBC. 

 

 

 

 

Searched it thoroughly, but didn't find the label where I can see the voltage...

 

Will do a video and send it to you later so that you can have a view also.

 

Thank you.

As above, you need to check the label on the side of the on board charger. It is the big box located under the bonnet.

I did 2 photos to show you that there is no label/plate where I can see the OBC voltage :-(

Can you please help me show where I can find it? I checked it and didn't see anything...

 

Thank you!

 

 

 

 

I checked again (see pictures)...didn't see anything :-(

Thanks a lot!

 

However, I am unable to see where it is on the OBC.

 

 

 

 

Searched and didn't see anything...really strange....see pictures below:

It looks like the sticker would be behind that wrapped cable in the metal bracket.
