Unfortunately, Glenn D a member of this forum and EV enthusiast and Open EVSE maker for many of us passed away not long ago. He was working on an EVSE for me at the time and I reached out to a person taking care of his affairs and they are sending mine back but there is one more there as well...

I like it, of course I have a Rav4EV so maybe I'm biased, if it had the same range and performance as the Rav4EV I would have considered it.

Unfortunately electric cars have been around a lot longer since the late 1800 and early 1900's

I suspect the short cord is the problem in most cases, all that weight hanging from a standard plug causes problems after a while, make sure you support the giant heavy box and I suspect you will not have any problems.

I bought a unit from Glenn and he is completely trustworthy even fixed it for me when I had a problem, I have no reservations what so ever in recommending you not worry about a transaction with him.

That is a long haul, you are very adventurous to try it, I would not, perhaps a volt would work better for you. I have both and with easy driving you could do 40 miles electric and charge on the other end to get 40 miles back home electric as well. I live in Santa Clarita and was in Palmdale...

Got one yesterday as well, did not open it yet but recognize the name.

I just scanned the posts so excuse me if I missed something important, just my experience. Solar City put in a 10.045KW system (42 panels) for me and I have a 100 amp panel and I'm with SCE, I'm leasing so perhaps there is a difference but i'm not sure why you would be limited. I've been...

I was a kickstarter backer until the August date missed and GlennD had a OpenEVSE available, they did refund promptly and It turned out that they shipped the unit to me and I ended up forwarding it to another backer. It's a very narrow percentage of buyers that could construct an OpenEVSE it...

Yep just plugged in every day, I suspect this will be a problem with the spec with such a short cord to the brick for the general public in the future.

Thanks again for all the reply's. I suspect the mechanical stress may have contributed after two years of the brick hanging from the sideways plug. I will replace the plug and receptacle with appropriate parts as suggested before using again. I will also check the wires on both the plug and...

Thanks everyone, will remove and inspect receptacle and report back. Wire is 12 Gauge. No moisture or liquid of any kind around the area that day, area is behind a fenced area, off limits to non employees.

So about a month ago I came out of work and pulled on my plug to put it away and it had resistance, so I pulled a bit harder and it came loose but when I looked at it, the plug was burned. I took it to Valencia Nissan and they contacted Nissan, so now a month later they told me they are not...
