Thank you for letting me know. I have already signed up with Ohmconnect but haven't heard anything yet. Are you a SCE customer?

Just wondering if anyone has received their free juicebox from emotorwerks. We sent in our application several weeks ago and are still waiting for notification from them as to whether we are going to get it or not. I am wondering if it is a scam to harvest personal information of ev leaf...

Based on their recommendations, I did exactly what they asked me to do in terms of installing the outlet. They wanted 14-50 outlet and Installed one with that specification. I can wait until they let me know, but I wish there was a time certain deadline that I can look forward to.

Yes, I have applied for it as I am in SCE territory. They keep on pushing the date for "giving" them away, and that concerns me.

Thanks for your suggestions. A couple of points: Schneider EV says it is for 30Amps. Shouldn't I go for one which charges at 40Amps since I have a 50 Amp circuit breaker? Second, what plug do I need? Or are you referring to an adapter that will fit into my existing 14-50 outlet? thanks for...

Hi I am a new user of a 2015 Nissan Leaf, model S with QC. I just installed a 240 V outlet with a 50 Amp circuit breaker, gauge 6 cables, and a NEMA 14-50 outlet in garage. Given that, I went on Nissan Leaf Wiki, and searched for EVSEs compatible for my setup. There were only 2 listed, one by EV...

Thank you for clarifying it so nicely.

Another dumb/newbie question: What would happen if i were to use the above 2 items (Leviton cable and CAMCO plug) and charge my 2015 Nissan Leaf? In other words, why do I need a EVSE if I can charge the leaf directly through the 220v outlet?

Wow. Seems like an expensive way to L2 charge at home. Are there any inexpensive options available, other than evseupgrade.com ?

I just leased a new 2015 leaf model s with QC. I just installed a 220v outlet with NEMA 14-50 plug. I am considering purchasing the following: Leviton A2034-PEV 30-Amp Level 1 Electric Vehicle Charge Connector with 20-Feet Cord It is available at Amaxon for $ 166. The title says L1 but the...

Thanks for the referral. I have reached out to them. Regards

First, I get my electricity from Southern California Edison (I don't know if that makes a difference). I live in Rancho Palos Verdes (zip code: 90275) and work in Torrance. Thanks for all your help.

Do any of Los Angeles based (including OC, SB) Leaf owners know of a reasonably priced and EV-savvy electrician? I am looking to install a 240V outlet in my garage. The cable will be pulled from the main panel which is a distance of 85 feet from the garage, and will probably go underground...

Hi Do you mind sharing with us the results of your research on insurance companies? I have state farm and I understand that Farmer's Insurance gives a discount of 5 % for electric vehicles. I am not sure of discounts from others. Thanks

Have you guys factored in the increased insurance premium when buying or leasing a Nissan Leaf? I was shocked to learn that the new leaf has a higher insurance than ICE. What has been your experience with insurance so far?
