Hello,
I am located in Union City, Bay area, California and planning to buy a Nissan leaf model s with quick charge tomorrow. I am a bit confused about the home charging installation options.
1) Apparently there is a form I need to fill in on the day I buy to see if I qualify for a free EV.

Has anyone in California got it recently. How much is the wait time.
2) If I can't get free(see (1) above, the cheapest option seem to be to get a 240V garage outlet
(seems to be the electrican wants $400?) for putting this outlet?
3) after (2) get, the upgraded plug from the berkeley folks at http://evseupgrade.com/?main_page=product_info&cPath=1&products_id=2" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
(about $300)
So the total is about $700.
Can I get all of this back after tax credit next year. Their seem to be a $1000 federal tax credit

Alternately is there a better option that can get me a charging station as in amazon.com
