    it is with some sadness that I note the Tesla site no longer offers the Gen2 Tesla Wall charger for sale via their website - it was perhaps the best and certainly most affordable 100/80 amp charger on the EVSE market. they are currently offering their Gen3 model - I have no personal experience...

    Dec. 2022 - Porsche recommends Hubble NEMA sockets - 6 gauge wire for your 50 amp circuit - and no longer recommends using L1/120V charging for "daily use" - these are all good recommendations - but they also attempt to shift blame to operational problems from their PMC/PMC+/PMCC to "low...
