Hi guys,
I'm new to this forum. Logged on to have a chat about EVSE cables. A friend and I are developing a very easy to use variable current cable that allows the user to adapt to various charging situations. We've tested our prototype on a Leaf and a Peugeot iOn.
The plug on the car-side of the cable allows you to easily set the current from 6A to 16A 120-240V (up to about 3650W although some cars like the iOn are limited, 3200W in that tested car), in increments of 1A.
Changing the current is a very simple push-button procedure that anyone can easily learn.
The reasons you may need to change charging current can be fuse limitations, high-draw times in buildings (ie. AC's running around noon on a hot day), etc.
I would like your thoughts on this kind of an accessory and possibly if there's someone state-side willing to give it a try, since I'm an expat currently living in Europe.
Thanks in advance for your input!
Paul
