What am I missing here? I don't understand why the responses to this post are talking about how much energy a Tesla takes. The article was talking about the GM car with the cringeworthy name, BOLT, not a Tesla. That's what I was responding to. They're not at all comparable. The Bolt is (wi

Seth, The contactor in a L2 EVSE is rated for AC typically, though it might be simple to replace the contactor with one that is rated for DC, typically the difference is the distance and speed that the contacts open and the magnetic blow out to quench any remaining arc. For the charger in the car

> EMW's Juicebox has a contactor and a switching AC-DC converter that will likely work well on anything in the 130-370 VDC range, so all you'd need to do is upgrade the contactor. My worry is what is inside the car. They also have a disconnect contactor or solid state switch on the J1772 charging
