I was looking at an EVSE "offered" by SPX and saw that it was offered for the Chevrolet VOLT. I was curious if it would work for the Nissan LEAF because I had read reviews stating that it was much less expensive than other EV service equipment.

So I emailed SPX and requested information. The response surprised me. I would think a company would want to make sales where ever they could but:
Is Chevrolet cutting deals to exclude reasonably priced EVSEs from people who don't buy their hybrid or is it more likely that it isn't compatible with the LEAF? Linda says that "the Plug" is universal but that's not saying that the electronics behind the plug will talk to the LEAF. :?

Thank you for your inquiry, the plug for the charger is universal.
Unfortunately, at this time, we can only retail to customers who have
purchased the Chevrolet VOLT, who are able to provide a VIN number for
authorization.
Thank you,
