On my Leaf the dashboard is illuminated with just the running lights enabled (i.e. no headlights). I don't even know why running lights are even a feature.

You can also check the sites for the specific brand of charger (ie. chargepoint, evgo, etc). They will generally tell you if somebody is actually using the charger at that moment, or if it is down.

Do you have the car or the booster seats at the moment? If the latter, I'd suggest going to a dealer and doing a test fit.

NCTC gives you 30 minutes of free charging and then it stops.

Starting in 2020 CA low income drivers who buy a used EV with expired carpool stickers will be able to get new ones: https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/New-law-intends-to-put-more-low-income-California-13242718.php

I got the following email today for our 2017 S (purchased in January, currently 4800 miles). Anybody know more about what this involves? Thanks.

We pay $1300 yearly for our 2017 S, for comparison we also have a 2014 Sienna minivan for which we pay $1100. This is in the SF bay area, both with $500 collision, $100 comprehensive deductibles. FWIW.

Technically ours was a used purchase even though it had only 75 miles. The dealership had purchased the car from Nissan corporate so they got the rebates. We get the no charge to charge program though. And the PG&E rebate.

Looks just like ours! 2017 S with 75 miles for 20K. Enjoy!

How long does it take to get the stickers? I applied for ours a month ago, and haven't received them yet.

Usually not to full. EVgo cuts off after 30 minutes so that's what we get. Typically somewhere in the 90% range, then it's back to 80% by the time she gets home. I'd say the total charge vacillates between 20%ish and 90%ish

Cool thanks. It's never gotten above 5 temp bars yet. And also we've never kept at 100% for any length of time, as even if it gets to 100% my wife then drives home after unplugging.

Thanks to the NCTC program, we get 2 years of free 30 minute charging sessions at EVgo stations. Conveniently enough, there's one in the garage where my wife works. End result - we are charging our 2017 S pretty much exclusively there, 2-3 times a week or so. My question is - is this a good...

Call me uninformed, but why a flatbed truck?

Interesting that's not how it works here in CA. At least I don't believe so - the 2017 model we just got was technically used (even though it only had 75 miles on it!) so the rebates had already been processed for that VIN. And you get a bigger state tax rebate too ours is $2500.

Remember that you still have to pay upfront for those rebates. Your loan would include the extra $9500. Then a year from now when you do your taxes you get it back.

I've got a 30 amp circuit with the existing 10-30 plug. It looks like the zencar EVSE is on amazon - https://www.amazon.com/Charger-Adjustable-Portable-Electric-Charging/dp/B075V4JNYS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1516726039&sr=8-1&keywords=zencar%2Badjustable%2Bevse&th=1 - is that the same one you...

Hello all, We have just jumped into the EV world with the newest addition to our family, a 2017 Leaf S. Purchased yesterday with only 75 miles on the odometer, even though we got it at the used car price. :) His nickname is Sid. So far so good, looking forward to thumbing my nose at all of...
