I am considering the purchase of a Clipper Creek CS 40 J1772 EV Charger.
This is a refurbished Level 2 charging station, model CS-40, for 40 amp circuit and up to 30-32 amp charging. It was originally fitted with a different interim connector for an electric car trial program that ended and it is now fitted with a new 25ft J1772 cord/connector, tested, and is compatible with the Nissan Leaf. This charger wall-mounts (indoors or out) on a dedicated 2-pole, 40-amp, 240 volt or 208 volt circuit and supplies up to 32 amps to the EV. I have an electrician that will install the desired receptacle in my garage and wire the plug the box.
Here is my question...
What should I do about a mount for the EVSE box. I do not want to mount this on the garage wall. Rather, build/procure/design a pedestal (or something similar) to mount it to. Reason is, I currently rent the house I am in and I want to easily move the EVSE with me should the need arise. In other words, the only mod I am willing to make to the existing house is an outlet receptacle in the garage.
Does anyone have ideas/suggestions/recommendations for a stand-alone mount that I can implement. All ideas are welcome!
Thanks.
I will try and include some pics of the EVSE here:
