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.
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.

" 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...
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.
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...
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.
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...
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...
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.

Tell AE to put it on the list?
I didn't fill out the application but the PIE web pages seem to suggest simply a wifi enabled...
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...
(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.

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.
