Hi
I am a new user of a 2015 Nissan Leaf, model S with QC.
I just installed a 240 V outlet with a 50 Amp circuit breaker, gauge 6 cables, and a NEMA 14-50 outlet in garage.
Given that, I went on Nissan Leaf Wiki, and searched for EVSEs compatible for my setup. There were only 2 listed, one by EV Pros (on sale at Amazon for $ 639) and a Leviton one (for $ 900 plus).
Are there other, more inexpensive options out there? I have heard of Open EVSEs, but I am not good at soldering. I can change a computer's RAM, Hard drive and something simple like that, but I am not skilled at soldering. I just want the fastest charging possible at home, given my electrical layout in my garage.
I am open to your recommendations. I am not sure if I should go on craigslist, or on homedepot.com or any other place. I am afraid I will get the wrong kind. Any help to a newbie would be sincerely appreciated. On this forum, I have found very useful advice, and am impressed with suggestions, and responses. If you know of a particular resource, and want to only reveal it to me, you can PM me.
Thanks in advance.
