We just had an Evr-green 400 surface mount installed. You need the pre-wire kit if you want the mounting bracket - there isn't one supplied with the charger, although there are two bolt holes in the frame of the EVSE that can be used to mount the unit without the bracket. I can take pictures of...

I'm really glad they installed that - the Oakton one is in use like 9-6 every day, and it'll be nice to be able to plug in if I ever visit the library. They also probably did it fairly recently to take advantage of the IL State DCEO 50% EVSE rebate (that closes today).

Might want to call up their distributors: http://www.blitzpowerusa.com/dealers/dealers.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I forgot to post the answers that I found. The $4k cash rebate program for vehicles is suspended. The 50% EV charger rebate is still active - at least until the 16th, when applications for this funding cycle are due. Caitlyn Barnes ([email protected]) is a better/faster contact than...

Are you sure it's the EVSE rebate that's suspended? From what I can see, it's the $4k EV state rebate that's on hold. The DECO's EV Infrastructure Rebate Program seems to be unchanged? EV rebate (IL Alternative Fuel rebate program): http://www.illinoisgreenfleets.org/rebates/index"...

I drive through Skokie a lot and i see 2-3 every time.

Thanks, I'll give the guy a call.

I sat in one of the prototypes at Mitsubishi's annual owners gathering in Normal, IL. It looks like they had to do some creative exhaust re-routing to get it around the battery pack under the floor of the vehicle.

I'm looking for an electrician as well - any followup on this?

We go here to eat occasionally - the Clipper Creek EVSEs have a 7kW capacity. We find the food to be hit-or-miss. The specials are almost always good.

Hi guys - I just joined the forum in hopes of getting some recommendations for EV installers in the Chicagoland area. We're putting in a Leviton EVR-green 400 (yay! 40 amps!) but the IL rebate program closed before any work could be done. The program re-opened just a few days ago and I'm looking...
