I’m not really interested in the public charging infrastructure topic, but I shop at the Lucky supermarket mentioned in the press release. I also shop at the Whole Foods market and bought my Leaf at the Nissan dealer where Bruce found other L3 EVSE. The installation at Lucky is done correctly

I've made an open EVSE as well. They work great. Just make sure you get a main relay of sufficient capacity, as the first one I built only had a 20 amp / 240v (4.8 kW) max. Installing a 30 amp version takes the same amount of time and physical space, and only costs a few dollars more. Tom

I tend to agree: L2 is on the way out for public locations. The two mainstains are home and work. Though work locations could be supported primarily by 20A 110v, I suppose. The other consideration is whether 50kW is enough for L3. I say no, we'll need 300kW or higher. If people are
