Wow that's a pretty good looking unit for a good price. When I converted
my truck from lead-acid to lithium (and a new charger) I also put in a
J-1772 and I'm happy I did. The J-1772 signal processing is handled by a
ModularEV AVC2 which is inexpensive and has performed flawlessly. Having
that built into the charger is a nice feature but I wouldn't buy a
charger just because of that.

Jay,
You may want to look at this charger for sale from Thunderstruck:

Thanks! I'm willing to go down to 2.5kW for that cost savings.
Plus the compactness is nice for my application..
Unless somebody chimes in with horror stories about this charger, I
think this is my new front runner...
Also, the integrated j1772 signal decoding is a nice feature should I
ever decide to move to that standard inlet (away from my current $25
twistlock connectors...which are hard to beat for cost, but can't plug
into L2 chargers that are starting to show up around town...) And the
ability to replace a MiniBMS head board is very nice as well! I was
looking at that when I switch to LiIon...
