What a scam. Received this pdf letter from Bob, EVCA President, after they promised two weeks ago that I would get delivery by year end.

Dear Glen,
Thank you for your order on a Charge@Home™ Level II, EV Charging Station. We
appreciate your business and are looking forward to serving your EV Charging needs
with your exciting new electric vehicle purchase.
As you know, there was a mad-dash scramble toward year end to try and get EVSE
purchases in time to comply with the expiring IRS tax credit. The good news is that the
tax credit has been extended as part of the new tax legislation that was signed into law
just today.
To help you prepare in advance of receiving your new vehicle and charging station, in
this box, you will find that we are shipping you:
• Charge@Home™ Charging Station wall mounting bracket;
• Complete Installation Instructions, and;
• Free, complimentary 240 Volt wall outlet.
We’ve sent you this installation kit in advance, at no additional cost to you, so that you
can be prepared, in advance of your product delivery with the installation, permitting and inspections completed and ready to charge when your vehicle is delivered.
Because of the huge demand that we’ve experienced, well in advance of the cars showing up, and the fact that much of the existing production capacity of our suppliers has been taken up by other EVSE government give-away programs for early EV adopters, we are running a lot longer on delivery lead times than we expected to be. Please bear with us as we fill our supply chain and obtain the necessary components for fulfillment. As of today, we are still waiting for some required components from suppliers that quoted us 8 to 10 weeks of lead time, 14 weeks ago, and still they put us off daily. As soon as we can give you a firm date, we will. Thanks for your patience.
Best regards and happy driving,
Bob Rosinski
President
EV-Charge America"
I told Bob to cancel my order and refund my money immediately.
