Just to be clear folks.... I posted the letter I received from EV-ChargeAmerica just to let everyone know that after a year of no communications, I finally did have some sort of correspondence from them. This is NOT an endorsement of them or their product. This was simply a post so you would...

Hello All, About a year ago I purchased a charger from EV-ChargeAmerica and was one of the many that did not receive a product after 6 months. Here is a letter that I received from them today. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ EV-Charge America Environmental...

Or you can just look at what has already been done at: http://www.pluginrecharge.com/p/evse-vendors.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; It's a reasonable place to start the search and then look at the many comments on this forum.

I'm sorry to hear that you are still an innocent victim of this unscrupulous company. As you know I was also a victim but was able to get PayPal to agree that EV-Charge America is running a scam operation and PayPal refunded my money after 5 months of dealing with these crooks. To all other...

Thanks so much for your explanation of how you view the rate structure. I do see your point and I appreciate it. I will have to say though we have different sensitivity sniffers.... I fully appreciate that this portion of the bill is very small and in the grand scheme of things could be...

Thanks for the help. I kind of thought that might be the case but with all the comments about the electric users effecting range I thought that someone else may be on to something.

They showed you!

Hi Gary, I was just wondering if anyone had access to or seen some type of a listing of the electrical users on the vehicle. I guess the list that I am thinking about would actually have 3 different columns. Those items that run only on the HV battery, only those items run from the LV battery...

Hello Tom, Are you saying that the main battery pack is charging the small battery during vehicle operation? I did not know that. Thanks!

Hello Ray, I do appreciate the fact that as a net producer of power I should be paying for the infrastructure needed to get that power to others. I get that and agree with it. My inability to comprehend this line item in my bill is based on the fact that SCE is PAYING customers to CONSUME...

Do any of you know if there is a post here on the forum which has a concise list of what electric circuits are on the main battery? I would like to know what we are able to control in an effort to extend the range of the vehicle vs what is powered by the small 12 volt battery. I would also...

Hello xtremeflyer, As was previously stated, this is a very small part of the big picture and I recognize that fact and fully appreciate the "good deal" of TOU for those of us that have solar. But the "big picture" is the sum of all the small parts and this is one of those small parts that I...

Tony, We will be waiting for the rest of the story..... :o

I hate to bring this up...but when we look at page 2 of the TOU-D-TEV rate tariff .PDF you correctly referenced and which we are operating under, you will see the rate of (0.02036) however, on my actual bills for Summer On Peak Lvl 1 the rate is actually -$0.02541. Again, just more stuff I...

I know that this issue is very small in the grand scheme of things but my frustration comes from a lack of understanding of WHY this is occurring. I'm sorry but this rate runs counter intuitive to me and I'm just attempting to understand why this was done by some very smart people. All I can...

Hello Boomer, What I am referencing in the bill is the first line of the Delivery charges for Summer On Peak Lvl 1. For this past month this was a minus 228 kWh for us, meaning we excess produced 228 kWh of power and that was sold back to SCE at a rate of -$0.02541 for a total of $5.79. This...

Glad to hear it! Now if we could only get SCE to actually cut us a check for the credit balance of the account THAT would be great. We installed a 10kW system last year and have a $1k credit so far....but that was without the car so I suspect that this year we should have a lower credit...

I agree....I often use the Eco mode as a way of downshifting but it just does not provide much of a "drag" on the system or result in a significant increase in the re-generation of energy. I would like to see that when we shift into a "lower gear" it would produce a much higher retarding force...

Done!

Has anyone seen any posts about why Nissan has not (or could not) include a method to allow for "virtual downshifting" of the vehicle thus allowing a higher efficiency re-gen system to be activated by the driver when needing to slow down, as in approaching unexpected slower traffic conditions or...
