I have 2 Leafs and a Clipper Creek 30A 7.2kW EVSE. Had them about 2 years, no problems. We had a big power outage during a thunderstorm. There was a very loud nearby thunderclap and then the power was out for 8 hours. I had Leaf #1 plugged in (not charging--on a timer for overnight) at the time. When the power came back on at 2AM I went down and manually turned on the charging (overriding the timer). When I woke up it had only charged about 20 miles worth and then stopped. The next day I manually charged it and it charged fine for 2 hours before I turned it off. The day after that, Leaf #2 (not plugged in during power outage) fails to charge overnight. The day after that Leaf #1 fails to charge overnight. I try to charge #1 with L2 manually. It goes for about a minute and then shuts off. Same with Leaf #2. I tried multiple times on both cars, same result. Both charge just fine on L1. I try to charge Leaf #2 (unplugged during the storm) via a free L2 charger near work. It charges for about a minute and then shuts off (again, multiple times). This L2 could be broken (I heard someone was having trouble with it a year ago--no idea about whether it's had trouble since).
What should I do now?
