I want more.
Going to keep a look out for a 12 or 20kw single phase chademo.
The 10kw chademo I have is kind of obsolete since it charges the leaf at 7 and then 8kw as the pack voltage rises and all the newer cars charge at a rate of at least 6.6kw.
Thats probably why I got it so cheap.
Current and soon to be produced cars are doing 7 to 12kw.
By 2020 most manufacturers should have up to around 18kw built in home charge option.
The 12kw home chademo has a max output of 25 amps so that would charge the leaf at 9 to 10kw.
The 20kw would charge it at 14 to 16kw.
I'm already set for a massive evse. My miller model 250 "welding circuit" is on a 125 amp breaker with 4 gauge wire.
To make it legal for other uses all I would need to do is down size that breaker to an 90 amp.
