New question: I have a 220-240 volt receptacle in my garage. Any advice what kind of L2 charger to get? There seem to be options
I believe the EV9 allows you to set charging times inside of the vehicle if you have access to off peak rates (or just want to be a good steward of the electrical grid), so you probably don't need a smart charger that is wifi enabled and has those features. I have a "dumb" Grizzl-E charger which is currently selling for $350 and is rock solid. The cord is a little bit thick, definitely heavy duty but a little more cumbersome to handle vs some others. Up to you whether you value perceived durability vs slightly improved convenience with a thinner cord. All of these EVSEs are basically just fancy extension cords with GFCI built in, so they aren't overly complex pieces of tech...
