Keep you cable when charging unatended

[MartinH]

My solution, works fine on my not original Winter Wheels
For the thief: Take the Wheel and the Cable, or cut the padlock or cut the Cable.

When charging at a public venue, one normally uses a Type-1-type2 cable which locks into the charger automatically and can only be released by a card swipe. The supplied brick cable has a hole for a small padlock in the plug.
Actually an interesting aspect. Has anybody ever heard of a cable being stolen?
