    PA Turnpike Commission installing chargers

    Honestly, I think the L2s are mostly a waste of money. Having 1 or 2 as backup/overflow capacity is fine, but L3 is really more suited to rest stops/travel plazas.

    E-MotorWerks JuiceBox - an open source 15kW EVSE

    This would we great... we've run into this issue about once a month so far. Not a huge problem, but it does occasionally mean the car doesn't charge up overnight. Looking forward to the firmware update, but I assume I would need some extra hardware to install it? I only have the base JB.

    White House proposes upping EV credit to $10k

    Interesting. Whether the rebate gets upped to $10k or not, I hope some of the other changes also mentioned will get implemented without too much of a fuss. eg: The POS rebate would be extremely convenient and, IMO, would not cause as big a fluctuation in seasonal sales (high towards the end of...

    E-MotorWerks JuiceBox - an open source 15kW EVSE

    Thanks mitch.. my folks have been using this EVSE for about a month now and this is the first time we've run into this issue. Good to know that it's nothing serious.

    E-MotorWerks JuiceBox - an open source 15kW EVSE

    We started having some charging issues today too, but we're not sure if it's the car or the EVSE. We set a charging timer and apparently charging does not start when it is supposed to. The dash lights do not light up at all when the EVSE is connected to the car, but apparently there are some...

    OHIO - Cleveland - Northeastern Ohio / Midwest

    Got a chance today to drive my family around on a trip in their Leaf... 3 adult passengers, 75 miles (65 highway) roundtrip, front and rear heated seats on, and cabin heating turned on for about 40% of the time with outside temps ~40F & fairly windy. Started with ~95% SOC and ended with ~10%...

    OHIO - Cleveland - Northeastern Ohio / Midwest

    Just bumping this to say I added the L2 EVSE to plugshare. Located close to Crocker Park on the west side (~15-20 minute walk in the summer). Message me here or through plugshare and I will check whether it will be available.

    E-MotorWerks JuiceBox - an open source 15kW EVSE

    We own our home, but never invested in a drill :oops: That's why I would prefer to try the solution that doesn't involve the drill first. Also, I did plan to get Joe's plug, but I was going to get the angled one without the hood, as I thought the one with the hood did not have a latching...

    E-MotorWerks JuiceBox - an open source 15kW EVSE

    Just got this EVSE today (base version) and it seems to be charging fine (although the supplied J1772 plug is a tight fit). My question is how are people mounting/storing this EVSE? I saw some pictures of someone using command velcro strips to mount this to the wall. If that works, I'm all for...

    How to remove backpack from trunk

    Thanks, I was able to do this easily after I just lifted up the black mat underneath the floor mat. Should have just done that first. :lol: Thanks for the help all!

    How to remove backpack from trunk

    Thanks, I realize there is a hook, but how do I do this? I tried to slide it off to either side but it doesn't seem to come off easily. Right now, the sling is passing underneath the gray "Leaf" mat and over the black mat underneath. There doesn't seem to be an opening in the loop towards the...

    How to remove backpack from trunk

    Hi all, We recently bought a Leaf, but our dealer was a goon and seems to have messed up the charging backpack install in the trunk. It is supposed to go through the floor mat, but I guess they were lazy and installed it UNDER the floor mat. How do I remove/reinstall the backpack in the trunk...

    Sent an e-mail to the zoo, I'll let you all know what they say. Has anyone had any luck with contacting malls/shopping plazas about installing EVSEs? Crocker Park on the west side would seem like a nice location.
