ElectricVehicle said:I expect to be at BayLeafs meet up. I'll bring my J1772 to 14-50 adapter useful for non-J1772 EVs, like the RAV4 EV and some of the nice Camco 14-50 plugs and receptacles that have the handle molded in, making them easier to plug and unplug.
Ps. I really like Phil's EVSE mod, and will likely use it on future vehicles even though it's not 6.6 kW, when I'm visiting friends or traveling and at a place for several hours or overnight I'll still get a fair charge or even 100% over some hours. For a road trip where you're actually waiting for it to charge - you'll want the highest charge rate possible, often 6.6 kW (though Tesla goes up to 16.8 kW!), especially while we're waiting for Quick Chargers for that 30 minute charge (160 miles/hour of charging - limited to 30 minutes of 80 miles at a time) to get deployed!
FYI: We can equip any EVSE with the L6-30 instead of the L6-20 at no additional cost. Just include a VERY VISIBLE note in the box that you'd prefer the L6-30. Then you won't need any additional outlets or adapters to use the existing stuff you have for your RAV.
Also: I don't yet know how many completed EVSE's I'll be able to bring to the meeting, but the people who have paid for new ones get first crack. If I have any left over, then anyone who wants to trade (immediate upgrade) can, as long as the EVSE you wish to swap is in like-new condition. I cannot accept any that are beat up, etc.
Please be sure you have your receipt and your signed release form with you!
If you have prepaid and you cannot get an EVSE at the meeting for whatever reason, we can refund your money, or you can go ahead and use shipping to get it done after the meeting.
