We have only had our Blink since Wednesday a couple of days and it has yet to complete a timed charge overnight. I have the leaf set to charge to 100% and finish by 6am and then turn on climate control to be ready by 8:30am. The Blink is set to always charge no timers.
The Clipper Creek we had for almost two months never had an issue with the above usage it just did its thing which I guess for the Clipper was not that big of a deal since it was just a 240 voltage source with some basic control logic and a relay not much more.
So our electrical contractor and Blink are going to replace our unit first thing Monday morning. What we have found was the Blink has been rebooting every so often and if it does while the Leaf is charging the charge cycle is not restarted to finish. The current thought is the Blink I have has an issue sometimes connecting to our network and will cause a system reboot to correct it. They are also going to install a PLC the reason they want all of us to have a 120v plug near the Blink is so they can connect over the hardwired PLC to the internet via the customers router.
