jnahanna said:I have an extra charger out of a factory 2011 model and would like to be able to incorporate into a 2011 car to double the charging to 6 KW. Has anyone performed this upgrade? Can It be put in parallel?
But that's not the only option.JeremyW said:The 22kW Brusa is 3 phase only and not available in America (60hz) markets. It will most likely not be $2-3k. That's what I paid to go from 3.8 kW to 7.2 kW and the Brusa I bought was from a bankruptcy auction ($1,100 for the charger alone- they retailed for $3k when they came out).
These are chargers which, in theory, could be off-board or on-board. It sounds like the OP already has a charger they would like mounted on-board connected in parallel to the existing charger. This should be possible, but is beyond my level of expertise.Lasareath said:Do you have a Level 3 connection?

The $900 just buys you the cable and CHAdeMO connector. You would still need need a charger to connect this to as well as having a CHAdeMO port on your car.Lasareath said:This one is $900 and will charge the LEAF in one Hour!
