    OpenEVSE - Open Source Charging Station

    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

    OpenEVSE - Open Source Charging Station

    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...

    Convert the 120v trickle charger to 240v on your own

    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...

    SAE J1772 inlet port Dimensions

    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.

    OpenEVSE - Open Source Charging Station

    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?

    SAE J1772 inlet port Dimensions

    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...

    OpenEVSE - Open Source Charging Station

    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.

    SAE J1772 inlet port Dimensions

    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

    Blink DCQC question

    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.

    Blink DCQC question

    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...

    Question for all the EEs on the site.

    I installed a 24 SMD LED panel in the dome light fixture of the leaf. And when it's on it works great. When it's off it works not at all. (Duh). But the wierd part is when it's on door mode. When door is open no problem bright as day. But with the door closed there is one led with a faint...

    Why does the last circle on recharge have only one not two?

    Why is there only one circle on the left sometimes and others there are two concentric circles? What does this signify?

    Info Request: Federal Employees Charging at Work

    To my knowledge this is being funded by the state of California not the federal GOV but if anyone hears differently please let me know and I will definitely follow up with NATCA at NORCAL.

    Info Request: Federal Employees Charging at Work

    I agree, that's why i would like to get EV charging written in as a free benefit by policy. The current policy is that if fleet vehicles are owned and EV equipment is present that employees may charge for 2 dollars a charge. The only problem I have with that is that at our electric rates the GOV...

    WA SB 5251 : $100 annual fee for EVs (was EV Tax)

    The thing that always confused me about WA was the fact that they eliminated sales tax on EVs to help incentivze EV purchase but now go after divers for a 100 bucks because they have lost revenue in gas tax. As if EVs have a meaningful impact on that and not the increase of higher MPG vehicles...
