What about evseupgrade, LUXMAN? That's what I went with after I was pointed to this thread last year. If inexpensive is what you're looking for, it's the best way to go. I can report that mine worked just fine and dandy -- and probably would still be if Ecotality hadn't given me a Blink for...

The difference between a Silicon Valley car company and a modeled-on-Detroit car company. ;-) I work in the software business, and I can tell you that most people are still afraid of software -- especially a company that still uses part numbers for software! So it doesn't surprise me that...

I'm waiting for the unlocked one.

I have PlugShare v2.5 (updated Sep 29, 2012) on my iPhone 3GS running iOS4, and I recently discovered -- when trying to show a curious on-looker when I was plugging into a charge station at a Walgreen's -- that the app immediately crashes when I try to start it. Anyone else having issues with...

I'm not sure if anyone here heard about the EVProject coming to Philadelphia. To announce it, they put a separate posting under the Eastern USA section as opposed to adding to this thread. I found out about it because one of my friends sent me the following article from the Philadelphia...

Congratulations, durgil! And welcome to the club! :-) If there's anyone here in more central PA, can you report on whether or not the Sheetz stations got their quick chargers yet? I think they were estimating that the installation was supposed to be completed by the end of June. Once they...

Yes, it was a beautiful day and, to me, 4-55 A/C seems better on the guess-o-meter than the LEAF-generated kind, so all of the windows were down. Given what appear to be hoof marks on the upper part of the door, I think the deer tried to leap through the back window and missed! I'm glad it...

The State Farm insurance estimator just handed me the numbers: $70 new front door decal $184 new rear door skin $630 new rear quarter panel $432 paint supplies . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $1,386 total parts $2,218 total labor $216 tax @ 6% . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $3,820 total He...

No, it shouldn't -- just ironic!

The rear door and quarter panel are nicely dented, and even the door jamb has a wrinkle in it. I looked in my rearview mirror after I heard the thud and saw the deer scrambling to get onto its feet in between the two lanes of traffic. It then ran between two cars and off the other side of the...

Last Friday, a deer ran into the driver's side of my car as I was heading down the highway. :-( Thanks for all of the words of wisdom on this forum! I'm just hoping the longevity of the car isn't going to be compromised. I wonder if I could take the insurance money plus the rebates and tax...

As I was driving down a highway this past Friday, a deer ran out of the woods and smacked into the driver's side of my LEAF. It did a nice job on the back door and rear quarter panel -- there's even a wrinkle in the door jamb. I'm severely bummed! :-( I just hope there's a shop that knows...

I got the newly-upgraded unit back and the electrician installed the new L6-20 receptacle yesterday. I checked the iPhone app, and it said it would take 13 hours to charge on trickle and only 5 hours on normal. I plugged it in, checked the app again about 4 1/2 hours later, and it was done...

Well, based on all of the posts I read I cancelled my order with Lowe's for the GE WattStation and shipped my Nissan-supplied unit off to evseupgrade today. Just need to get the electrician out to install a new outlet with, maybe, a shut-off switch and a meter of some sort. Oh! And wait for...

I just bought a WattStation from Lowes.com (used Discover Card cashback points and a Lowe's 10% off coupon). The website said it would arrive at the store in 3 weeks, which I thought was a little long. But, then, I got a phone call from the store saying that it would actually take more like 5...
