When I got my Juicebox charger some years ago, there was apparently a
manufacturing flaw in the control pilot wire in the charging cable.  The
wire was broken with no damage to the cover.  After a while it failed.
I spliced the wire, but to do it I had to remove the cover from the
cable.  I tried to replace it with some heat shrink, but this never
worked properly.  So when you move the cable around by the handle, it
stresses the wires, which then broke again.

I got tired of repairing it and bought a new cable.  Would anyone like
the old one?  I also have most of the parts of a J1772 outlet.
What's missing is the outer shell that holds the sockets and one of the
little springs that holds the socket closed.  See attached photo.  If
you'd like any of this stuff, make me an offer.  At least enough to pay
for shipping and it's yours.

Incidentally there was a comedy of errors when I tried to buy a
replacement cable from Enel X.  I bought a clearly described 25' cable
from their web site.  They sent me a 20' cable.  I didn't notice, so I
wasted an hour connecting it to the charger.  Then it didn't reach from
the charger to my car.  So I complained to Enel X, and in a couple of
weeks they sent me another 20' cable.  Fortunately I wasn't fooled again.
I didn't waste my time but called them up right away.  Finally they got
somebody to go to their warehouse and find a cable that was actually 25'
long, not merely one that was in a box labeled "25' cables".
