To address your question mark, I can confirm that I am drawing 4.8 kW (20A @ 240VAC, both measured) with the EVSE Upgrade unit.

I'm not the one who made the statement you're quoting, but I agree with it. It's portable insofar as you can unplug it if you want and put it in the car if you anticipate the need to do so. If you get the accessory adapter you can still use it on 120V. The nature of my daily driving is such...

Just to be clear, I was already on the list as 'interested'. Now I'm in for two, so long as there's a discount. It's not clear to me whether we've reached ten, which I believe is the minimum.

I would likely be in for two if we get a group discount. One for the Leaf, one for our Outback, so it depends in part whether the whole group buy has to be all Leafs. There hasn't been any activity on this thread on a few weeks, so I don't know whether other folks have moved on and made other...

Confirmed. Using the multi-function display and controls in my S, I can set the car to start charging at a particular time, and I have done so. I believe there is also a provision in the menu for time-based climate control, but I haven't bothered with it.

I've only had my 2013 S for a few weeks, and I just got my wall meter installed a few days ago, so I'm just starting to capture and analyze data. One thing I do expect to find is that the efficiency is influenced by driving habits. I'm entirely willing to drive in freezing temperatures...

I'll agree with you there. If my analysis was on point and Nissan was using it as a distinguishing feature, they should identify it as a feature on the higher models. My guess is that it was intentional to cripple it, but an oversight not to identify it as a feature on the models that have it.

I have no idea. There are folks who care about all sorts of things that have no meaning for me. There are folks on this thread who are implicitly expressing their desire for BT streaming, indicating that it has some value. Ultimately, it is one of the set of features that distinguishes the...

True statement, but it's no less rational for a manufacturer to cripple a relatively lower priced model, even for some situations in which the act of crippling has an associated cost. Let's assume my cost of manufacturing a widget is $75, and I know there's a substantial market of buyers who...

True. I'm led to believe it's brand new. That's why they have the banner at the top of their homepage that asks 2013 Leaf owners to contact them first before ordering. I think they're still working out the ordering details.

No, it appears to be a modded pre-2013 model, with the larger "brick".
