EDIT: This one is sold but I have received a lot of inquires about custom builds. YES I definitely take orders for anything you would like to see in your EVSE. Lead time is only 3 days. Private message me or if you have a general question you think the rest of the community can benefit from post it here.
EDIT: I want to clarify this is a fully assembled & tested unit not a kit. It's ready to use out of the box! The only accessories you may want are the input cable adapters I offer such as the standard 5-15 plug to 14-50 outlet rated at 20A found here: http://www.mynissanleaf.com/viewtopic.php?f=41&t=18483" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
30A OpenEVSE portable waterproof outdoor unit For Sale
I bought a 2013 Nissan LEAF and love it! I have a heavy electrical background and was inspired when i saw some DIY units for sale here. Work has been very slow and my employer is now weeks behind in paying the other employee and I.
This has caused a severe financial hardship. It's a very stressful time with 2 little boys. I need to support my family anyway I can and am hoping to build and sell a few EVSE's. Thanks for reading this, Now on to the fun stuff!!
I have a High Power OpenEVSE for sale with a Yazaki 30A J1772 15 foot cable. This unit operates on Level 1 120VAC or Level 240VAC. Using optional adapters you can plug this into a standard house outlet, for 120v use, a 240v dryer outlet, etc. This is a 30A EVSE. This is mounted in a PolyCase WC Series Polycarbonate Enclosure with Clear Cover - NEMA Rated for outdoor use. This unit requires a 40A 240V circuit breaker for maximum current but can be dialed back to whatever circuit you may find via the menu, see my video demo link below.
The cost is $395 plus $25 for UPS ground shipping in the continental USA
It will charge any J1772 compliant car at up to 30A.
The EVSE may be set in multiple steps on Level 1 and 2.
Level 1: 6,8,10,12,14,16,18,20,22,24,26,28,30A
Level 2: 6,8,10,12,14,16,18,20,22,24,26,28,30A
Memory is retained for each level separately.
I can now customize the firmware to whatever values you like before shipping. I chose these values to give the user flexibility for various outlets found in the wild. I stop at 30A as this is what the relays and cables are rated for. This unit is constructed with 30A components. It is designed to plug into a 14-50 outlet protected by a 40A circuit breaker. 32A is 80% of 40A and it is the maximum allowed for a continuous load. I go higher on the 120v side than you normally get so if you use a RV 30A outlet you can take advantage of faster charging. in my test my LEAF could pull 2.64kilowatts (22A @ 120V)
Case Specs:
Case measures 6.30 x 3.15 x 3.35 in.
Designed to IP65 of IEC 529 and NEMA 1, 2, 4, 4x, 12 and 13 specifications
Silicone rubber gasket makes this ideal for outdoor use in a wide range of adverse conditions
Molded on surface-mounting flanges
Captive, stainless steel screws thread into brass inserts for cover on/cover off applications
UL Listed to UL508-4x specifications (File E194432)
Main Board Specs:
Open Source - Hardware (Creative Commons 3.0 BY-SA) and Firmware (GNU GPL v3)
Fully supports SAE J1772 Recommended Practice
Software adjustable pilot (12A – 30A)
4W Switch Mode Power Supply Integrated
Built in GFCI with 20ma trip point
Supports all J1772 states including “ventilation required”
Supports Diode check
AC L1 – L2 auto detect Current setting for each
Ground verification and Stuck Relay detection
Specs:
OpenEVSE v.2 board running newest firmware
All nuts/bolts/washers are STAINLESS STEEL
The base plate inside is 1/4" thick high quality plex ,no thin stuff here.
The relays are quality Potter & Brummfield 30A units.
The input cable is 1-foot 30A as it's a portable with the popular NEMA 14-50 plug. With an EZ pull handle! This is the one all the Tesla guys have installed as well as the standard at RV parks!
you can even use the plugshare app and set the filters to include NEMA 14-50 and see all of them in the country, there are a suprising number of them.
It has a monochrome black on yellow display
I used a silver color metal blue lighted ring Menu/Select button. with IP65 water resistance rating
Heat shrink tubing used through out.
All parts are new.
Here is a link to the owners manual:

Here is a video on me demo'ing the unit:
http://youtu.be/18CjZzrDLcY" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; at 240v
http://youtu.be/p58ZRoR1dUc" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; at 120v
If you would like the unit customized with a twist lock plug for example or something other than the Nema 14-50 plug I can do that for the difference in parts.
If you would like to see it in action on your EV we can arrange that thru private message at my home. The cost is $395 plus $25 for UPS ground shipping in the continental USA.
Local pickup in Las Vegas near Smith's grocery on E Flamingo or near The Strip is available. Payment is by Paypal if shipped or cash for local pickup.
Please post any comments or questions here or PM me if you like.
LEGAL DISCLAIMER: Because of lawyers I have to add this. This EVSE is intended for use ONLY by responsible adults. Because they are hand-made, they are not UL listed - but are made from UL listed parts. 240v electricity is serious business and caution should be exercised while using any EVSE. It is a good idea to install a GFCI breaker not a standard one for any and all circuits a person can come in contact with If your buying one anyway. This EVSE has a GFCI built inside that protects from that point down line. (The J plug side of the the EVSE is safe for outdoors in all weather). BY PLACING AN ORDER WITH US, YOU ASSUME ALL RISK ASSOCIATED WITH USING THIS EVSE AND AGREE THAT WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGE THAT MAY RESULT FROM THEIR USE.
