Schneider EV Link Home Charger on Craigslist- advice?

[RustyHook]

I normally wouldn't think about buying such a pricey item on Craigslist but it says New In Box...

Got decent reviews online.. but does anyone have any experience with this unit?

Friday March 8th, I had a licensed electrician install the same charger, Schneider EV230WS,
for $795.00. It is advertised on the website (both generation 1 & generation 2 are listed).

Old Price: $1,250.00

Price: $795.00

You save: $455.00! (36.40%)

So far it is great. My Leaf has the 6.6kw charger so I am getting max charge.

These are also available at big box home improvement stores for less than this price - the Orange one and the Blue one (stores, that is). Sometimes there are 10% off coupons for movers.

No way would I pay a premium but that is your call. Schneider has worked perfect for 1.5 years for me.
I would discount $100 below Home Depot/Lowes as you don't get the option to return it.
Otherwise let him take it back.

Don't buy it, maybe at $500, but no way at this price. We have an EV link, I'm pretty sure it was $799.
