JeremyW said:I believe you are working on more inexpensive revisions to compete price wise on the JuiceBox, without scrimping on safety. Very Commendable! Bravo Chris!
mitch672 said:There are a few differences; they are supplying the relays for the advanced model ($199), supposedly they are 60A capable. They also have CTs to measure current, and a small OLED display to show charging time, current, KW, and it's supposed to come complete in an enclosure. I have reserved one to test, plus I have a Model S UMC connector I can use with it, so I won't have to spend much more to complete it (I bought the Model S end from someone who cut it off a Tesla UMC to install a J-1772 connector on it, for charging a RAV4EV at a full 40A)
Will let everyone know what it looks like/works. Not abandoning OpenEVSE, just testing something new.

This looks really great. I just ordered a kit for evaluation. The price looks to shoot down the other "brand"chris1howell said:Hi all,
Here is a early peek at the new OpenEVSE Store. The store launches officially tomorrow, but since OpenEVSE (AKA DIY Weekend Project) was born here at MNL, MNL members gets early access.

Let me know what you think...
