  1. OCPP: is Ford Charge Station Pro OCPP capable/compliant?

    Awesome work I agree. Seems simple. Either V1.6 or newer. You'd think there is some geek at Ford that created the software that runs all of these metrics they are trying to sell. He'd know for sure if you can find his cave.
  2. Pro power ground fault detected on 240v well pump

    You can double check by making an adapter for gen set to include a gfci. Bet it will trip too. I suspect you have path to ground.
  3. OCPP: is Ford Charge Station Pro OCPP capable/compliant?

    I wish you luck. AE gives so much away for free you ought to get the most you can. All I know is when it rains the power goes off. [email protected] ??
  4. Anyone have two chargers or use load sharing?

    " Power Sharing allows you to connect two or more Wallbox chargers (up to 25 total) on a common electrical circuit and dynamically balance the power available to each charger " https://support.wallbox.com/wp-content/uploads/ht_kb/2022/07/Power-Sharing-Smart-US.pdf...
  5. Winter battery temperature management

    The battery will be maintained plugged in or not. I think the temps on start may be different but if you want or need full battery then as above, just keep it plugged it winter or summer. It is nice to jump into a pre-warmed cabin on very cold days.
  6. OCPP: is Ford Charge Station Pro OCPP capable/compliant?

    Until it gets on AE list, I kinda doubt it will get the extra $400 or so. According to Versacharge they are all ocpp by design. Some chip in that is the rx/tx device Doubt they make too many brands. Guess you could put wireshark on and look for ocpp version string. I'd continue with Siemens tech...
  7. Anyone have two chargers or use load sharing?

    The companies that have load sharing will usually describe how it works. They have not mentioned if competing evses can talk to each other yet. Yes, the point of load sharing is to use a single circuit to charge two on same single circuit.
  8. Coming Soon: Siemens Product Avoiding Panel Upgrades (in Q1 2023?)

    The gizmo reads the downstream current and if needed it will lower the EVSE charge. So if you tossed the main breaker the EVSE would run at it's max setting. The signal is a simple inductive meter on both legs. I didn't suggest it was dangerous. That would only be proven true or false with time...
  9. Is Ford 80A charging station worth it for Lightning SR?

    Someone posted a seemingly accurate ford link that did say buy what we got or see ya.
  10. Coming Soon: Siemens Product Avoiding Panel Upgrades (in Q1 2023?)

    There is a ZERO chance that this product is considered dangerous yet. Too many power companies have it and are installing it.
  11. Portable EVSE Amps over 110v/120v

    There should have been a 20A plug on it. Tesla's have or had a 16A charger. The charge rate is advertised by a dwell signal and the evse will say to truck that it can deliver 16A. Not sure if truck will read it at all to allow the very very slight improvement. I agree that 8 is half 16 but at...
  12. OCPP: is Ford Charge Station Pro OCPP capable/compliant?

    I'd almost have to believe that charger is fully compliant. That is how Ford gets data.
  13. EA charger cut me off at 90% - what if I wanted to wait for 100% for a long road trip ?

    Someone did a spreadsheet but they could have converted it to a formula to input what is better sort of results. If the short DC stop is close to route and well within the range at 70-80MPH travel then I'd stop there.
  14. OCPP: is Ford Charge Station Pro OCPP capable/compliant?

  15. Coming Soon: Siemens Product Avoiding Panel Upgrades (in Q1 2023?)

    The EVSE's that are ganged on single circuit can already pass NEC and adjust current per loading. Siemens has a long track record in the electric/electronic world. Tesla and others have this. Some load sharing of dryer outlets exist. Unfortunately devices that are new can eventually be found to...
  16. Successfully Charging with TWO 30amp 120v outlets, for 240v power, at a campground...

    (B) Disconnecting Means. Each multi-wire branch circuit shall be provided with a means that will simultaneously disconnect all ungrounded conductors at the point where the branch circuit originates. http://mjobee.com/projects&news/nec%20art%20210.4.pdf
  17. Coming Soon: Siemens Product Avoiding Panel Upgrades (in Q1 2023?)

    At least it is something and gets past the over amp issue.
  18. 60 Amp install for FCSP at $1,500, or 80 amp at $2,200. Is it worth the extra $ ?

    You are correct. I read all there stuff a long time ago. The flat rate on their PIE L2 is by far the best deal. They will charge $30-$50 on their 360 plan switches at 10kWh. Not sure I pay that currently or if it's still active. So not a great deal except the install and then irs.
  19. EA charger cut me off at 90% - what if I wanted to wait for 100% for a long road trip ?

    I've had many DC stations stop my charging on cars before 100%. It will be painfully slow to go 90-100 in terms of time unless you like slowwww.
  20. Successfully Charging with TWO 30amp 120v outlets, for 240v power, at a campground...

    Guess I have to mention that using two 120VAC breakers that are not mechanically connected could be dangerous. Is there no 50A dedicated RV spots?
