For some reason I could not respond to your private message.

Sure, send it in. Most repairs are free. I will update the firmware as well.

I will, Thanks I also don't mind paying for parts at all just let me know when you're done what you needed.

[quote="GlennD"]Mike the forum owner removed my posts. That certainly is his right.

Remember that I support everything I made. Please email me if you have a problem and I will take care of it. Usually just for shipping both ways. So far I have never charged for parts but there is always a first time.[/quote

I am 71 and I find that my body is failing me. I will still support what I made but I do not guarantee the turn around time. It is frustrating to me that I still have my mind but my body is failing.

Sorry to hear that. Hang in there, Glenn!

If it's any reassurance, having both start to pack it in isn't any better.

I do not feel any different. Friends tell me that I am not as sharp as I used to be. The major problem I have is with small wires. My father had Parkinson disease. I really hope I do not also have it since there is no cure. I am not sure that I want to know.

I have an OpenEVse unit for repair. It is a unit from hell. I have had problem after problem. Someday I will get it working. Maybe tomorrow.

I delivered my EVSE. The 12V converter shorted and it took the power supply. It did not work with a 25 foof OpenEVSE cable. I measured the capicaty to ground on the L wires and it was excessive. I am currently using a Quick Chaege cable. I sent back one for excessive cap. It checked fine DC wise but it did not work. The replacement works fine.

The EVSE worked with a 32A 20 foot cable but gave bogus error messages with the bad cable. This is a dual voltage unit with two 30A Chinese relays used at 16A.

Measuring the EVSE cables on hand most were around 425 PF on the L cables to ground after subtracting abut 20PF for the test cables The working cable measured 390PF and 440PF.
