What the first 90 days proved The WL-4G5 keeps five 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 actually moved which left a 31% margin after the first sell-through cycle cleared 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.

It looked like a routine RFQ until the buyer mentioned what the last batch cost them. Property developers now pre-wire bike sheds for charging because tenants ask before they sign.
After the operator's own four-week load-balance logging test, 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 bike shed had a row of scorched sockets and a handwritten notice telling riders to bring their own timers.
Nobody flagged it at the packing station; the market flagged it first. An island installer documented chargers that shipped with single-band 4G modules that never found the local network.
Field case: A portfolio manager in Bandung stopped learning about faults from social media after the WL-4G5 offline and overload alerts reached the dashboard first. Rider complaint volume dropped by three quarters in the first quarter.
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:
What the pilot units had in common was a single mainboard with per-port metering and a contactor rated for real monsoon humidity.

| Pilot program | WL-4G5 | Live data wins the follow-on tender |
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.
Put side by side with the alternatives the buyer had been using, the difference showed up in test time, not just features.
| 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 |
The workflow below is the same one every Wanlin OEM order follows, from sample to dock. A standard charging station OEM project then follows 8 steps:
The notes below are from follow-up calls after the first containers sold through.
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 actually moved By working directly with manufacturer Wanlin, the E-Mobility Service Provider team in Bandung reached 31% 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.
