Has anyone had any luck getting a discount to buy out a 48 month lease?

I'm not near the happiest place on earth. But thanks for the offer. I'll plug my FTDI into it and mess around with it. Worse comes to worse I swap for my spare board. I think if I can get it done I'll build a guide on Chris' new DIY guide page. Thanks

I have an OPEN EVSE from a year ago that I wanted to change to the Max amps from 16a to 24a since I'm using it with a 6.6kw leaf. The adafruit display buttons don't seem to work, LCD does however. so I figured I could just use my serial cable to change it. The software part has never been my...

Borland, would you be willing to share the work you have done so that one of us may try to carry on the project? Like maybe share your drawings on the auto desk share site of email me the files?

I disagree that building an OPEN EVSE would be more expensive than upgrading the Nissan L1. once you build your new OPEN EVSE you can sell your old one and probably come out the same, had he upgraded. That being said, I almost want to buy that ebay book to see what the guy has...

Borland, where do you think you will go from here? Try submitting it to sharp ways and see what the options are as far as materials and whatnot? It would be great if we could all order these directly from them.

nice job Borland!!! if the fit is good would you make the file available or put it on file with shapeways so we can all partake?

I caught that too. I told my wife and we had to rewind it. it was the door handles that tipped me.

Thanks. I didn't use the ferrite beads. I almost bought some but earlier builds didn't have any. And I was done with my Orders already to get hit with shipping again. Any reason that you must have them?

I found the auto desk free software to be problematic. It doesn't tend to work if their predefined shapes don't fit together. I really wish pro engineer had a free version. That software is really nice. I'll continue to try the free stuff. Thanks for the drawing good find. I'll have to also...

Thought I would stop by and post my OPEN EVSE build. Thanks to all those in the thread who made this project possible. It has been educational and inspiriring. I have since started to learn ardunio and the AT architecture to make my own projects.

Does anyone have any info on where I can get a schematic with the dimensions for the port end of the j1772 plug. I want to design a 3d printable wall mountable port to plug my EVSE in when not in use. Thanks

I was thinking of adding some RGB LEDs to my enclosure. Any advice on how to go about this with a plus board?

I'm pretty sure then that the other guy hit stop on my charge so he could go. As we were walking away to go in to the shop my friend told me he over heard the other driver complaining that I got there just seconds ahead of him.

Does the blink DCQC only charge one car at a time? I had an experience where I received a text saying my car unplugged while doing a QC, when i went out to investigate, my car was plugged in still, but there was a leaf next to me charging on the other side. My charge was no where near 80% as...
