I have applied and will let the list know how I get on. I already put in the necessary 4mm2 cable and 32A RCB during my self-build specifically for an EV charging point so it will be a simple job for them. A nice feature to have - if it really is free or very low cost - and a nice (house) sell

I found the paperwork to be very clear and simple when applying. It does state that you will be the owner of the charge point from day one but that they reserve the right to receive data from it for up to three years which I guess is for the government to chew over. You can move it from house to

The Leaf' s guess-o-meter is sounding more and more like the ancient way EV'rs would know their pack's SOC by using an in-dash volt meter that read the pack's surface voltage. I found that to be very inaccurate. It wasn't until I had installed a link-10 e-meter that read out AH in or out that EV d

It also as an estimated time to charge display. My charge timers are set to 80%, so this display presents the estimated time to charge to 80%. Like the "peacock" gage it is not linear, but I think it has a little better resolution than the "peacock" gage. The accuracy of its estimate is off b

There's at least one add-on product. See previous EVDL post: http://www.evdl.org/archive/index.html#nabble-td4662724 Also it seems the service centers must have something. But probably a large external device that hooks up to the CAN-bus. Peri -Original Message- From: ev-boun...@lists.
